Gentle stabilizing dots float around your screen and move opposite to your Mac's motion, giving your visual system a calm reference frame on trains, planes, and in cars.
A tiny, always-on companion that stays out of your way until you need it.
Detects motion through your Mac's built-in webcam and counter-animates reference dots in real time using spring-damped physics.
No dock icon, no main window. Toggle dots, change density, switch sensitivity — all from one tiny status-bar menu.
Dots float above every app and every Space without ever intercepting clicks. You barely notice them — except when you need to.
Five presets from Very High to Very Low. Pair with 4–32 dots and an optional High Performance mode to fit any Mac.
Distributed through the Mac App Store with full sandbox, hardened runtime, and Apple's standard review.
Built with AppKit, AVFoundation, Core Animation, and StoreKit 2. No web views, no Electron, no battery surprises.
MotionFix uses only what your Mac already has — its built-in camera — to estimate motion locally. The camera image is never displayed, never saved, never sent anywhere.

Quick answers to common questions.
Yes — Macs don't have accelerometers like iPhones do, so MotionFix uses the built-in webcam to estimate motion visually. The image is never displayed, recorded, or transmitted; only a tiny motion vector is derived in memory.
No. MotionFix uses only your Mac's built-in camera. There's no iPhone companion app, no Bluetooth sensor, no accessory to buy.
MotionFix is native AppKit with a low-resolution camera pipeline (640×480 at 20 fps) and an optional High Performance mode that further reduces CPU. Expect 1–3% extra battery use over a typical hour.
Long enough to feel the effect on a moving train or in a car. Short enough that you'll know quickly whether MotionFix helps you — and a fair sample without giving away the full app for free.
Yes. MotionFix is a universal binary supporting macOS 12 Monterey and later on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
