Answers to common questions
What is CursorHop?
CursorHop is a software KVM - it lets you share one mouse and keyboard across multiple computers on the same local network. Move your cursor to a screen edge and it hops to the next computer instantly. No hardware switch, no cables.
Does CursorHop work between Windows and Mac?
Yes. CursorHop runs natively on Windows 10+ and macOS 12+, and handles Ctrl ↔ Cmd shortcut translation automatically so keyboard shortcuts feel right on each platform.
How fast is it?
Around 7 ms median cursor latency on gigabit LAN. The input engine is written in Rust with no garbage collector and no runtime overhead - cursor movement feels local, not remote.
Is it a subscription?
No. CursorHop is a one-time purchase starting at $10 (Pro, 2 computers). Pay once, use forever, 12 months of free updates included. A 7-day free trial is available with no credit card required.
Is my data encrypted?
Yes. All keystrokes, mouse movements, clipboard contents, and file transfers are encrypted using the Noise protocol on every tier - including the free trial.
How is CursorHop different from Synergy or Barrier?
CursorHop uses a Rust-native engine with roughly 7 ms latency versus Synergy's ~17 ms and Barrier's stalled codebase. Encryption and mDNS auto-discovery are on by default, setup takes under a minute, and Windows ↔ Mac both work. See the full side-by-side comparison matrices.
Do I need extra hardware?
No. CursorHop replaces a physical KVM switch with pure software. Install it on each computer, connect them to the same local network, and move your cursor between screens. No cables, no USB switch, no hardware dongles.
