Mos
Smooth, trackpad-like scrolling for a regular mouse
MacFree
The verdict
If you moved from a trackpad to a regular mouse and hate how the wheel jumps in steps, Mos makes it scroll smoothly the way a trackpad does. It also reverses the mouse's direction without touching the trackpad, tunes the feel per app and maps extra buttons to Mission Control or Spaces, all free from the menu bar. Mac Mouse Fix adds trackpad-style gestures for $2.99, but Mos covers smooth scrolling at no cost.
Get it if
You use a regular mouse on your Mac and want the wheel to glide like a trackpad.
Skip it if
You only use a trackpad or Magic Mouse, and both of those scroll smoothly already.
