About KeyCastr
KeyCastr is an open source keystroke visualizer for Mac that shares keystrokes on screen when creating screencasts, presenting, or collaborating with others. It requires permission to receive events from macOS through Input Monitoring on version 10.15 and later, or Accessibility on older versions. It will never receive or display passwords when the website or application treats password entry as secure.
