Why Zoom marks you away

Presence by inactivity, not by the meeting

Outside a meeting, Zoom updates your presence based on your device's activity. If you stop moving the mouse and keyboard, you appear away to your contacts — even with Zoom open.

KeepOnDuty keeps that activity going naturally and discreetly, so your Zoom presence stays active. No connected accounts and no special permissions.

Features

Full control over your presence

Real movement

Moves the mouse at the operating-system level, not a fake cursor. Resets the inactivity timer for every app at once.

Schedules & work hours

Set your work hours (9–6, Mon–Fri) with simple schedules or cron. Blackouts for your breaks.

Stealth mode

Imperceptible micro-movements, random patterns and adjustable speed for natural behaviour.

Respects your activity

The moment you touch the mouse it steps aside; when you leave, it resumes on its own.

Private & local

Sends nothing to any server. Works 100% offline; everything stays on your device.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why do I appear away in Zoom if the app is open?

Because Zoom uses your device's inactivity for presence. With the app open but no mouse/keyboard movement, you go away. KeepOnDuty prevents that inactivity.

How do I keep my Zoom presence active?

Run KeepOnDuty with a short interval. It resets the system idle counter and your Zoom presence stays active.

Does it affect my meetings or camera?

No. KeepOnDuty only generates small mouse movements; it doesn't touch your camera, microphone or the meeting.

Does it work on Mac and Windows?

Yes, on both, natively and lightweight. Many rivals only cover one platform; KeepOnDuty covers both.
