What it does
Experimental mouse and trackpad driver for macOS.
SmoothMouse is a mouse driver for macOS, created in 2012 by Daniel Åkerud and Eugene / Dae. It improved mouse pointer response, removing the infamous lag and provided a new way to configure mouse acceleration in macOS. At the peak of its popularity, it had approximately 40 000 users, including more than a hundred at Apple Campus in Cupertino. In 2015 (El Capitan) Apple fixed the lag. A year later they have removed several system calls necessary for SmoothMouse to work. The developers have then decided to pause the project. Looking to tweak mouse acceleration in macOS?
