What Our Users Say
“KTMM has been a lifesaver during my workday. Our corporate policy locks screens after just 3 minutes of inactivity, which was constantly interrupting me during code reviews and virtual meetings. KTMM runs quietly in the background, uses almost no resources, and keeps my sessions active exactly when I need it.”
