Description
Ghost Input is a simple macOS app that helps you save time by recording your keyboard and mouse actions, then playing them back whenever you need. Whether you’re filling out forms, testing software, playing games, or just repeating the same steps every day, Ghost Input can do the clicking and typing for you.
Record What You Do
• Hit record, and Ghost Input will capture your keystrokes and mouse movements—clicks, scrolls, pauses, and all.
• Start and stop recordings with a button or a shortcut.
Play It Back
• Replay your recordings exactly how they happened.
• Control the speed and number of repeats.
• Choose how mouse positions work:
• Based on your screen size (great for switching monitors).
• Based on where your mouse is when playback starts.
Keep Things Organized
• Rename, delete, and arrange recordings however you like.
• Export and import recordings to back them up or share them across Macs.
Launch Apps Automatically
• Open a specific app before your recording plays, with an optional delay so it has time to load.
Stay in Control While It Runs
• See a floating overlay while your recording plays so you know what’s happening.
• Stop playback anytime with a click.
• Set up global shortcuts to record or play back without switching apps.
Works with macOS Shortcuts
• Use your recordings in Apple’s Shortcuts app to create custom workflows.
How People Use Ghost Input
• Fill out forms: Type info once, then let Ghost Input handle it next time.
• Speed up testing: Automate repeated steps in your apps or websites.
• Gaming shortcuts: Record complex sequences and trigger them with a key.
• Set up your workspace: Open apps and arrange windows with one shortcut.
• Accessibility help: Make it easier to perform long or tricky actions.
How It Works
1. Record: Start recording from the app or with a shortcut.
2. Save: Stop the recording and give it a name.
3. Edit: Reorder or delete actions if needed.
4. Set a Shortcut: Assign a hotkey to play it back anytime.
5. Play: Run your recording and watch it go.
6. Share: Export to share or import on another Mac.
Why Try Ghost Input?
• Saves time by handling repetitive tasks
• Cuts down on mistakes by doing things the same way every time
• Easy to use, with a clean design that fits right into macOS
• Flexible and works with Apple Shortcuts for more powerful automation
Ghost Input is a helpful tool for anyone who wants to make their Mac more efficient—without needing to learn scripting or automation tools. Just click, type, record, and relax.
