An auto clicker is a type of software or macro that can be used to automate the clicking of a mouse on a computer screen element.
This type of auto clicker is fairly generic and will often work alongside any other computer program running at the time and acting as though a physical mouse button is pressed.
[citation needed] Auto clickers are also called automation software programs, and may have features enabling response conditional reactions, as well as a keyboard.
An auto clicker has different applications depending upon the type of task required to be automated.
Similarly, some computer joysticks come with an auto-fire function which can usually be adjusted by a further control which sets the rate of fire and also will improve your clicking speed.
