Auto clicker
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 and click faster than intended. Clickers can be triggered to repeat input that was recorded earlier, or generated from various current settings. Auto clickers can be as simple as a program that simulates mouse clicking. 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. More complex auto clickers can similarly  be as general, but often are custom-made for use with one particular program and involve memory reading. Such auto clickers may allow the user to automate most or all mouse functions, as well as simulate a full set of keyboard inputs. Custom-made auto clickers may have a narrower scope than a generic auto clicker. Auto clickers are also called automation software programs, and may have features enabling response conditional reactions, as well as a keyboard. Applications. An auto clicker has different applications depending upon the type of task required to be automated. Following are a few examples where  auto clickers are used. Hardware. While an auto clicker is software that is emulating mouse clicks, there is hardware that can do this for itself. Any computer mouse marketed as a 'gaming mouse' will typically have with an auto click function which can be set to auto click at a user-specified rate. 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.
