It's the only application that allows the use of two-factor authentication on almost all available platforms. Its open source nature reassures me, but I don't understand its privacy policy on iOS, and probably on other systems. That's why, today, I'm choosing not to use it or recommend it.

Petit logiciel sympa.

J’utilise une alternative appelée Eyeballs, que j’adore. Ce logparamétrageeaucoup plus simple et accomplit parfaitement sa fonction pour laquelle on l’a téléchargé !

What is Googly Eyes?

Googly Eyes is an application that adds animated eyes to your computer interface, following your cursor movements and blinking when you click. It's designed mainly for the primary display, as the tracking function may not work on inactive secondary displays. The application requires slightly more CPU usage due to macOS inefficiency in updating menu bar items. However, it's optimized to reduce resource consumption. For example, a 10% CPU usage on the Activity Monitor for a single core translates to about 1.2% of total CPU usage on an 8-core machine.
