ReachIt

Help people who have difficulty controlling mouse movements reach any corner of window in minimum keyboard steps.

Also useful for people who don't have mouse or don't prefer using it aka some programmers.

Use case :

Sometimes we want to precisely click on a checkbox, or a text field. However, people with hand tremors/lack of fine motor skills will find it extremely difficult. In that case, this app will help them to get the job done.

Idea :

Divide the screen into smaller pieces with each user input to take her to the desired position.
