The problem

Small frictions that add up every day

Third-party mice never quite feel right

Scrolling feels choppy, inertia is off, and macOS gives you almost no tuning controls for non-Apple mice.

Side buttons are wasted real estate

Most third-party button mapping tools are clunky or app-unaware. You end up ignoring the buttons.

Voice and language switching still breaks focus

Reaching for a key to start dictation, then manually switching input source — every single time.

Core feature

Mouse Enhancement for macOS

Everything your third-party mouse needs to feel like it belongs on macOS.

🖱 Mouse+ Enhancement

Smooth, mappable, per-app configurable

Works with any USB or Bluetooth mouse. No driver install needed — just LinguaX.

〰️

Smooth Scrolling

Tunable scroll curve for any mouse. Adjust speed and inertia. Per-app overrides when one app needs a different sensitivity. See the smooth scrolling guide.

✳️

Gesture & Button Mapping

Map clicks, long-press, and directional drags to real actions: app launch, system controls, media, or custom scripts. Map side buttons →

⧉

App-Scoped Overrides

Override any button or scroll behavior for a specific app without touching the global config.

Standout feature

Push-to-Talk Voice Typing on Mac

Hold a mouse side button to start voice dictation. Release to stop. Your hands never leave the mouse.

How it works

One hold. Instant dictation.

LinguaX maps a mouse side button to hold the macOS Fn / Globe key. While held, macOS Dictation activates. Release the button and dictation stops — just like a walkie-talkie. Full setup guide →

Automatic Input Source Switching

Your input context follows your focus

Set one rule per app and one per domain. LinguaX switches input source automatically whenever context changes.

Falls back to your default input source when no rule matches. Works in the background, invisible when working correctly. Setup guide for app and domain rules →
