- Toggling mouse visibility via the Info button resets cursor position
- The mouse warps around your TV sides, so you can roll over from the top of your TV to the bottom instantly
- Mouse movement is momentum based, so keeping key pressed for longer will increase the movement / send multiple swipes
- For remotes who don't have the above buttons, a `Boss Key` is available which can be used to toggle between mouse mode / scroll mode / dpad mode. By default this is the mute key, but can be overridden in the configuration settings. See the Youtube video linked below by TechDoctorUK for a demo of how that works.


Shoutout to @sweenwolf for enhancing the app to work on tv boxes with less remote buttons.

You'll need a physical mouse to go to accessibility services and disable MATVT. And this time before re-enabling it, please follow instructions and give the service proper permissions. You can also use a keyboard, but it'll be way more tedious.

- **So, how does it work?**
You have the exact code in front of you, feel free to read it { It's not that bad ;) }. In a nutshell, this app uses Accessibility features provided by Android.
