Clacky vs Mouse Click Sound

Click, scroll and keyboard sounds with a ripple on every click, a Studio that records your screen, captions and cuts, quick screenshots, and Clackyland, a little harbour town that grows while you work. 7 days free with no card, then $4.99 a month or $19.99 once.

Why Clacky wins

• 

  Clicks you can hear and see

  37 click sounds with their own press and release, 8 scroll styles, 29 keyboard sounds, plus double-click, long press and drag, and a ripple under the cursor on every click. Keyboard sounds never record which keys are typed.

• 

  A recorder that keeps your clicks

  Record the whole screen, one window or an area, with your Mac’s sound, your clicks and ripples right in the video. Pause when you need to, stop from the notch. Recordings stay on your Mac.

• 

  Captions and quick edits

  Captions are made on your Mac, word by word. Split, speed up, trim and crop in the clips lane, then make it 9:16 with the captions out of the way.

• 

  Screenshots, done right

  A screenshot editor, Scrolling Capture for whole pages, and Grab Text to copy text from anything on your screen.

• 

  Clackyland

  Using Clacky bakes cookies. Spend them in a little harbour town, unlock achievements, open the daily treat and visit your friends. The fun part, never in your way.

• 

  Simple to buy

  $4.99 a month or $19.99 once, with every feature either way. 7 days free with no card and no account, the app in 14 languages, on 2 Macs, and a real person answers your email.

Where Mouse Click Sound is better: Mouse Click Sound is cheaper ($2.99 once) and runs on Macs back to macOS 10.13.
