Read the guide →Before you start
System-wide control needs Input Monitoring and Accessibility permission. Matching events apply to every connected mouse; devices are not separated. The reference library is not a compatibility guarantee. Macros are preview-only; there is no smooth scrolling or hardware DPI/firmware programming.
Access & data
A paid download with no subscription or in-app purchases. Testing requires no input permissions; system-wide control starts only when you enable it.
See the App Store listing for current purchase terms.
