Easier to understand. Nothing about how your mouse works has changed in this release; every setting now explains itself.

New

  • Guide tab, shown on first launch and from the menu bar: getting started, a plain-language summary of what each of your buttons, the scroll wheel and the pointer do right now, which button is which, tips, and fixes for common problems.
  • Every setting explains itself underneath, and the text follows whatever you choose. Hovering a control shows a short tip.
  • Helpful warnings when something will get in the way: Mac Mouse Fix running at the same time, only one Desktop to swipe between, a button whose plain click does nothing, or a keyboard-shortcut action with no shortcut recorded yet.
  • Step-by-step Accessibility setup, including what to do if MouseDragFix is already switched on but still not working.
  • Clearer menu bar: says whether MouseDragFix is active or paused, and adds How to Use MouseDragFix… and, when needed, Allow Accessibility Access….
  • Button action menus are grouped, and Pass through is now called Normal click (no change).
  • Reset all settings now asks before resetting.

Fixed

  • The "×" after the pointer speed value sat above the number instead of beside it.

Upgrading

Your settings carry over. If macOS asks for Accessibility access again, or MouseDragFix is switched on in the list but isn't working, select it in System Settings › Privacy & Security › Accessibility, remove it with −, then open MouseDragFix and allow it once more.

Install: unzip, move to Applications, then right-click → Open the first time (signed with the hardened runtime but not notarized). Grant Accessibility when prompted.

Requires macOS 14 or later; built and tested on macOS 27.
