Limelight
Highlight your cursor for webinars on a Mac
On a shared webinar screen, attendees lose your tiny pointer in a sea of content. Limelight adds a glowing spotlight so everyone can follow where you are pointing.
During a webinar, you share your screen and start walking through slides or a product, but the pointer that is obvious to you is a faint dot to your attendees. On a compressed video stream over Zoom or Google Meet, it is even harder to spot. People lose the thread the moment they cannot find your cursor.
Limelight is a menu-bar overlay that wraps your pointer in a soft, glowing spotlight. Press ⌃⌥1 to turn it on and your cursor becomes the clear focal point on the shared screen. Because Limelight draws on top of every app, it works with whatever you use to present, Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, or any other webinar tool, and the spotlight is part of what you share, so attendees see it on their end.
Start Limelight before your session, share your screen as usual, and toggle the spotlight with ⌃⌥1 whenever you want extra emphasis. It is a live overlay only, nothing is recorded or uploaded by Limelight, so it simply makes your shared screen easier to follow in real time.
