EyeSpy Googly-Eyes Experience — A Playful Cartoon Eyes Desktop Companion
Meet EyeSpy, the simple and delightful desktop toy that makes your Mac more engaging, playful, and downright fun. EyeSpy’s cartoon eyes watch your mouse cursor as it moves about the screen!

Remember those classic googly eyes you'd stick to inanimate objects to give them a life of their own? EyeSpy brings this concept to your desktop world.

With EyeSpy, your cursor isn't just a point-and-click tool; it becomes a source of endless amusement. Cartoon characters with animated googly eyes watch your cursor as it moves around the screen, adding a dash of whimsy to your work.

EyeSpy Breaks the Mold
At first glance, EyeSpy may resemble a cozy game without an objective, but it's much more—it's a delightful toy, a pleasant distraction, a soothing cartoon companion animal! EyeSpy runs with scissors, draws outside the lines, dances like nobody’s watching!
Always Visible: EyeSpy cartoon eyes float above all your application windows.
Dynamic Interactions: Watch baby bees swarming, or thump balloons so they bounce off your mouse cursor and roam freely around your screen.
Pleasant Distraction: The perfect digital rubber band for those idle moments or lengthy phone calls.

Why Does EyeSpy Even Exist?
You might wonder why a seemingly simple toy, originally released over 20 years ago, keeps captivating audiences. The answer lies in human evolution and our innate ability to discern where others are looking. This subconscious allure keeps EyeSpy eternally charming—whether you're in a coffee shop or in front of your laptop.

Cute...but problems

Tried buying free/paid faces but none work. App gets error even after the last update.
Please have a look - filled out feedback email on website as well.

Developer Response ,

hey ScottB, we covered the EyeSpy In-App Purchase system to Apple's new store API, StoreKit 2. It seems to be working reliably, now. We hope that when you update to the current build, EyeSpy 3.0.5, you'll discover that any characters you purchased will load, automatically. Let us know either way by sending email to support@illumineX.com. Thank you!

It keeps an eye on you

If you've ever wanted to have a little virtual friend pay rapt attention to your every move, this is the app for you.

As a bonus, you can make it go cross-eyed by putting your mouse between the eyes.

Cheap Therapy

This is an app that you don't know you need until you start using it. Who wouldn't want a pair of googly eyes following every movement of their mouse? The characters are fun! The googly eyes aren't distracting, just companionable.
