## Kitsmith's take

A small, focused fix for one specific annoyance: wanting natural (reversed) scrolling on a trackpad but classic scrolling on a wheel mouse, or vice versa, with each device set independently. Free and open source under the Apache 2.0 license, maintained by a single developer (Nick Moore, "Pilotmoon Software") since 2011, funded through optional Buy Me a Coffee donations rather than sold.

## Features

- **Independent trackpad/mouse settings:** Reverse scroll direction on a mouse while leaving trackpad scrolling untouched, or the reverse.
- **Magic Mouse support:** Works with Apple’s Magic Mouse in addition to third-party wheel mice.
- **Step-size control:** For wheel mice, scroll a fixed amount per wheel click instead of macOS’s default scroll acceleration.

## FAQ

**Is Scroll Reverser free?**
