Presentify
Draw on your screen and highlight your cursor
The verdict
If you present, teach or record tutorials on a Mac, Presentify adds a menu bar tool that lets you draw anywhere on your screen and put a colored highlight around your cursor. It works over full-screen apps, Zoom and Keynote, adds a whiteboard you can switch to mid-call, and lets you use an iPad and Apple Pencil through Sidecar. The App Store label says it collects no data.
Get it if
You share your screen on calls or record how-to videos and want people to see exactly where to look.
Skip it if
You present once a year. Zoom's own annotation tools cover a quick call.
