Features/Pause conditionsยทIntroduced in 1.0.0

Pause when screensaver is running

Don't fight the screensaver.

What it does

Pauses shaking when the macOS screensaver is active.

How it works

Shake It On listens for `com.apple.screensaver.didstart` / `didstop` notifications and falls back to checking whether ScreenSaver.Engine is in the running-applications list.

Where to find it

Settings โ†’ Paused When โ†’ Screensaver is running. On by default.

When to use it

Always. Shaking the cursor would just exit the screensaver immediately.
