Lock the keys while you clean

Only for Mac

Mac

Wipe every key without typing a thing. One click locks the keyboard and trackpad; one four-key combo unlocks them. Wipe your Mac's keyboard without typing a single character. Keyboard Cleaning Lock puts your Mac into cleaning mode: every key, click and trackpad gesture is blocked while a dimmed full-screen overlay shows exactly how to unlock. Wipe, scrub and polish — nothing gets typed, launched or deleted. HOW IT WORKS • Click "Start Cleaning Mode". • The screen dims and shows the unlock combination. • Clean your keyboard and trackpad calmly. • To finish, press and hold left Shift + left Command + right Command + right Shift for one second. FEATURES • Blocks keys and keyboard shortcuts, including Cmd+Tab and Cmd+Q. • Blocks clicks, scrolling and trackpad gestures. • Live feedback: each unlock key lights up as you press it. • Captures the play/pause and track keys, and restores your volume when you unlock. • Fail-safe: pick any auto-unlock time from 1 minute to 7 days, in case you can't press the combination. • Keeps the screen awake while you clean. • Covers every connected display. • Native macOS design, available in 23 languages — switch language right inside the app. • No data collection, no network access, fully sandboxed. Also great when a curious cat or a toddler is around. PRICE: Free for the first week — no sign-up, no subscription. After the trial, a single one-time purchase of $1.99 (price may vary by region) unlocks the app forever. Note: volume, brightness, Caps Lock, Touch ID and the power button are handled directly by macOS and cannot be intercepted by App Store apps — the app compensates by capturing the playback keys and restoring your volume when you unlock. System-reserved shortcuts (like screenshots) and some system trackpad gestures also remain active.
