Instead of looking for a highlighter, I go looking for https://motox3m.io

The screen magnifier and annotation tools can help you emphasize important details and make your demonstrations more interactive. https://spacewaves.io

I use Squid to make videos of all my lectures by now. The only reason why they sometimes look a bit clumsy is that I always have to draw and undo to show what I'm talking about. A pointer would be great!

Agreed, a hovering pointer to show where the pen is and be able to gesture to things on the screen would greatly improve online teaching during COVID.

Yes, we need a bigger pointer for presenting and screen recording.

Please, as we're trying to teach online during the Covid quarantine, I find Squid VERY useful for making videos. But I really need a pointer as I'm teaching.

I use Squid to record lessons (screencast + audio recording) and having a sort of hovering dot would be very nice to show the students what I'm talking about.

Actually, the Samsung S3 Tab has a pointer which is displayed if the pen is hovering over the screen.
Would be great if Squid app would also use that feature to enable a pointer tool at least in presentation mode which is extremely useful in trainings and classes to focus the attention of the audience to parts of the screen.
