With the launch of macOS Catalina 10.15.4 beta last week, Apple has enabled new functionality. It's about memorizing "tasting.", an outreach feature for those who have trouble moving a traditional mouse. The service joins other initiatives made by Apple with the goal of helping people with mobility problems.

Well known developer and editor of 9to5Mac, Guilherme Rambo, He was the first to find work. As mentioned in the video, in macOS System Preferences we will get a new option. If a beta is installed and we want to try this function, we should follow these steps:
- Open System Preferences> Availability.
- We go to the "Manage cursor" section and then apply "Enable header control".
By this you will be working. There are many options we can change, with speed. The faster we move our heads, the more the cursor will move. We can also choose which camera to use with this function when we have one connected to a Mac. We also used the key to activate or deactivate this pointer.
Moving the pointer to memory is a small improvement that will help many people use the Mac. Being a beta, it is not certain that it is reaching the final and public version of macOS 10.15.4. Even though we are in the middle version, there is a high probability that this is the case.
Apple has always been recognized for offering the most advanced access features. Designed for four people visual, motor or hearing difficulties. This pointer is one of a long trajectory.
