Mac Mouse Fix 3.1.0 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesA plain mouse on a Mac can feel like a poor cousin of the trackpad. Scrolling jumps, extra buttons do little, and gestures are missing. Mac Mouse Fix closes that gap. It gives a regular third party mouse smooth scrolling and many of the gestures you would normally get from an Apple trackpad.
Key Features
- Adds smooth trackpad style scrolling with levels you can adjust to taste
- Lets mouse buttons trigger gestures such as Mission Control and desktop switching
- Allows you to assign actions and keyboard shortcuts to clicks and drags
- Lets you change scroll direction for the mouse without changing the trackpad
- Has open source code published on GitHub so anyone can inspect how it works
How to Download
- Go to Download from the official site and download Mac Mouse Fix for your Mac.
- Install the app and grant Accessibility access when macOS asks you to do so.
- Open the settings, assign actions to your mouse buttons, and adjust scrolling until it feels right.
System Requirements
Mac Mouse Fix 3 supports macOS 11 and later, and a mouse with extra buttons unlocks the full gesture set. A basic two button mouse still gains the scrolling improvements. Check the official site for notes about specific mouse models.
FAQs
Is Mac Mouse Fix really free?
Version 2 remains free, while version 3 offers a free trial period and then a small one time cost to own it. The official site explains the current terms clearly.
Does it work with the Apple Magic Mouse?
No. The app is made for third party mice. The developer notes that the Magic Mouse is not supported.
Why does it ask for Accessibility access?
macOS requires that permission before any app can watch mouse input and turn button presses into gestures and shortcuts.
