What is ShareMouse?
ShareMouse lets you operate multiple computers from one mouse and keyboard without moving a physical switch. Move the pointer onto another computer's monitor to direct input there. It suits a desk with a Mac alongside another Mac or Windows PC: each computer keeps its own display, while input travels over the local Wi-Fi or Ethernet network.
The application also offers clipboard sharing and drag-and-drop file transfers between computers. Check the edition before relying on these extras: the publisher reserves some features for paid editions. The free edition is restricted to qualifying personal use; professional, commercial and power-user setups require a license. The all-features demo runs for 30 minutes and can be restarted for continued evaluation.
Install ShareMouse on every computer you want to link. The publisher lists macOS 14–15 and 26–27, and Windows 10/11 for Windows peers. On a Mac, its setup documentation calls for Accessibility permission for input control and Full Disk Access for file and clipboard functions. This is a local-network input-sharing tool, not an internet remote-access service or a way to share one monitor between computers.
What it offers
- Switch mouse and keyboard control between computers by moving the pointer to another computer's monitor.
