  • Animated cursor skin

If you miss the clean black arrow from Apple's Mavericks era, this skin brings that look to your Windows desktop. Hershell built it as an animated AVIF, so the cursor has subtle motion instead of sitting completely still. It suits people who want a professional, understated pointer that does not scream custom skin. Runs as a live desktop cursor through Mouse X on Steam, and it is a fan-made tribute, not an official Apple product.

“Power to the desktop.” (Hershell, on the Workshop)

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the OS X Mavericks cursor?

Install Mouse X from Steam, then subscribe to the skin on its Workshop page (or inside the app). Mouse X downloads it and you can apply it with one click. No .cur files, no Control Panel digging.

Does it work on Windows 11?

Yes. Mouse X supports Windows 10 and 11, uses very little memory and CPU, and doesn’t hook or inject into games or other apps, so it runs quietly alongside everything else.

Is this cursor free?

The skin itself is free, like everything on the Mouse X Workshop. Mouse X is $2.99 on Steam, and the free demo lets you try custom cursors before buying.
