Finger heatmap · macOS
Which fingers do the work?
Pulse splits every keystroke across your ten fingers — so you can see which ones carry your typing, and which ones never move.

What is a finger heatmap?
A finger heatmap shows how your typing workload is split across all ten fingers. Pulse infers which finger presses each key (from your layout) and tallies the load, so you can see if you over-rely on a few fingers.
Why does finger balance matter?
Lopsided finger use is slower and more fatiguing. Seeing that, say, your right index does 17% of everything while a pinky barely moves helps you spot bad habits and train a more balanced technique.
