I’ve seen Gary (and many others) use an annotation pointer (red dots, circles, exploding selections, etc) when making instructional videos, etc. on his Mac OS
Is that feature an external app – if so, what is it?
I am using my Zoom.us client for Mac to hold meetings and would like to use annotation features other than what Zoom.us offers.

For my videos, that is a feature inside of ScreenFlow. So I don't see it when I'm recording, but I can change aspects of the cursor while editing. So I make the cursor larger, and also have an effect applied when I click. It is just a setting I turn on. I don't have to do it for each click.
You also get this with simple macOS screen recording. When you use Command+Shift+5 you can choose the option to turn on Show Mouse Clicks and you get a circle when you click in the recording.
If you want to do something like this, but "live," there is an app called Mousepose (https://boinx.com/mousepose/) that you can use.
