VibeCursor: Gesture Control

DEEPSHIKHA YADAV

About this app

VibeCursor lets you control your phone without touching the screen. Raise your hand in front of the front camera and a cursor follows your palm pinch to tap, flick to scroll, swipe to turn pages, and more. All hand tracking happens on your device.

Great for hands-free moments — cooking, eating, lying down, messy or gloved hands — and as an accessibility aid for anyone who finds touching the screen difficult.

HOW IT WORKS
• Move — the cursor follows your open palm
• Pinch (thumb + index) — tap / click
• Pinch and drag — scroll and fling through lists
• Swipe left / right — turn pages
• Open hand — recent apps
• Fist — notification shade
• Pinch your ring finger — Home; pinch your pinky — Back
• Custom poses (thumbs up, thumbs down, OK, victory, call, rock and more) — open any app you map them to

SYSTEM-WIDE CONTROL (optional)
Turn on system-wide mode to use gestures in any app, not just VibeCursor. This uses Android's Accessibility service to move the cursor and tap for you, plus a screen overlay to draw the cursor on top of other apps. You enable these permissions yourself and can turn them off at any time in Settings.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Hand tracking runs entirely on your phone using on-device machine learning
• Camera frames are never uploaded, saved, or shared
• No account, no ads, no third-party tracking

LEARN & TUNE
• Interactive Practice mode confirms each gesture with a ✓ as you perform it
• A full gesture guide, plus sliders to adjust pinch firmness, hold times, cursor reach, and scroll strength
• Show or hide the on-screen cursor; with it hidden, only the fixed pose gestures stay active

REQUIREMENTS
• A front-facing camera
• Android 7.0 or newer (works best on recent devices — continuous camera + on-device ML is demanding)

VibeCursor is a hands-free control tool. It does not read or collect the contents of your screen; the Accessibility service is used only to move the cursor and perform the taps, scrolls, and navigation you make with your hand.
