The problem<br>Small frictions that add up every day<br>Third-party mice never quite feel right<br>Scrolling feels choppy, inertia is off, and macOS gives you almost no tuning controls for non-Apple mice.
Side buttons are wasted real estate<br>Most third-party button mapping tools are clunky or app-unaware. You end up ignoring the buttons.
Voice and language switching still breaks focus<br>Reaching for a key to start dictation, then manually switching input source — every single time.

No driver install needed — just LinguaX.<br>Smooth Scrolling<br>Tunable scroll curve for any mouse, with fine-grained controls for step size, speed gain, and inertia duration.
