LinearMouse is a macOS utility for customizing mouse and trackpad behavior, including scrolling direction, pointer acceleration and speed, and button remapping. It supports per-device and per-app profiles so settings adapt to whichever input device or application is in use.
Use cases
- disable mouse acceleration on mac
- reverse scrolling direction for mouse but not trackpad
- remap mouse side buttons to keyboard shortcuts
- adjust mouse pointer speed and sensitivity on macos
- set different scroll settings per app
- make mouse scrolling linear instead of accelerated
When to choose
- you're on macOS and frustrated with mouse acceleration or scrolling behavior
- you want per-device or per-app input profiles
- you need button remapping for mice on a Mac
When to avoid
- you're on Windows or Linux
- you need advanced features like gesture customization beyond button remapping
- you want a cross-platform solution
