Your mouse jiggler got flagged. What happens next
Being flagged is unsettling, but a flag is a line in a report, not a verdict.

Flagged usually means a report, not a person
Most flags come from an automated anomaly report, not a manager watching your screen. Time Doctor 2 has an Unusual Activity Report that marks monotonous clicking and mouse movement with no clicks. An entry in that report and a conversation with your manager are two different events.

What cannot be undone
Recorded data stays recorded. No app, Reaction included, can delete intervals from tracking history or roll back a report that already exists.
- Past intervals stay in the tracker database.
- A raised flag cannot be withdrawn from your side.
- Screenshots and input logs live on the employer side.
What actually changes from here
A hardware dongle repeats one path forever, while varied input has no fixed period and stops producing the signature that triggered the report. Reaction moves the cursor along changing curves, mixes keys, scrolling and window switches, and holds a set activity band instead of a flat 100%.
Natural
Suspicious
- Vary path, speed and pauses, not one repeated motion.
- Hold a realistic band, not a perfect score.
- Give control back at the first touch.
The employment side
Whether a flag leads anywhere is decided by company policy and your contract, not by the technology, so reread what you actually agreed to.
In short
You cannot unwrite a report that already exists, but you can stop producing the pattern that generated it.
Let Reaction hold the number for you
Set your activity band, turn on hidden mode, and Reaction keeps a natural, human-like level while you are away — and hands control back the moment you return.
FAQ
Can my employer see that I used a mouse jiggler?
They see the input pattern inside the tracker rather than the device itself.
Can I remove a flag from my activity report?
No — the recorded data sits on the employer side and cannot be rolled back.
Does being flagged mean I will be disciplined?
Not by itself; the flag is one data point and what follows depends on company policy.
