Ultra-responsive custom multi-touch gestures, middle click, pinches, and hotkey bindings for macOS with sub-millisecond latency.
Free & Open Source under MIT • Universal Binary (Apple Silicon & Intel) • macOS 13+ • Verified SHA-256
MagicTouch bypasses legacy cursor emulation by tapping directly into Apple's private multitouch subsystem for true hardware-rate gesture recognition.
Hooks directly into macOS private C-APIs, streaming raw capacitive coordinate frames at the mouse hardware polling rate before OS filtering.
100% local execution. MagicTouch has zero analytics, zero external network calls, and no background tracking daemons. Open source under MIT.
Handcrafted in pure Swift with AppKit menu bar lifecycle and SwiftUI popover views. Consumes less than 25MB RAM and idles at 0.0% CPU.
Experience MagicTouch's raw capacitive multi-touch tracking live in your browser. Touch or drag across the virtual surface, or run automated gesture tours below.
Private framework hooks, sub-millisecond latency, and native SwiftUI popover.
From essential 3-finger middle clicks to complex 4-finger spaces navigation, MagicTouch turns the entire glass top into an ultra-responsive gesture trackpad.
Every gesture can trigger standard mouse buttons, complex recorded keyboard shortcuts, native macOS commands, or custom scripts.
Middle click (Button 3), Back (Button 4), Forward (Button 5), Double/Triple Clicks, and custom drag locks.
Capture and fire any combination of modifier keys (⌘, ⌥, ⌃, ⇧) plus alphanumeric keys with millisecond accuracy.
Direct integration with Mission Control, App Exposé, Spaces Virtual Desktops, Launchpad, and Smart Zoom.
Trigger background Shell commands, Raycast/Alfred scripts, or AppleScript commands on gesture completion.
Because MagicTouch reads raw capacitive hardware frames and dispatches virtual clicks, macOS requires two standard security permissions in System Settings.
Mount the downloaded MagicTouch.dmg and drag the application icon into your /Applications folder.
Enables MagicTouch to synthesize native mouse clicks (Middle Click, Double/Triple Click) and dispatch recorded keyboard shortcuts.
Authorizes reading raw capacitive sensor pixel coordinate arrays directly from your Apple Magic Mouse touch glass.
