EasyMousefor MacMiddle-click auto scroll on Mac
On Windows you can click the wheel and move the mouse to keep a page scrolling, but macOS has no such feature. With EasyMouse auto scroll turned on, the page scrolls up, down, left or right from the point where you pressed the button, faster the farther you move away from it.
Set it up in EasyMouse.
Install EasyMouse, grant Accessibility and Input Monitoring permissions, and select your mouse in the device list.
In button settings, turn on "Auto scroll". The trigger is the wheel click (Button 2) by default, and you can press another button to use that instead.
Choose "While button is held", "Press to toggle", or both. Toggling can be set to a short press or a long press.
Adjust the scroll speed, test it, then save. Settings are stored per device, so other mice are not affected.
Before you start.
Using the wheel click for auto scroll can clash with opening links in a new tab with a middle click in your browser. To keep both, use a long press to toggle, or pick a different trigger button. The app is free, so try it on your own mouse first.
- Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
- Runs on both Apple silicon and Intel-based Macs.
- One universal build supports both Apple silicon and Intel Macs.
- Please allow EasyMouse under Accessibility and Input Monitoring in System Settings → Privacy & Security. Please check these permissions again if macOS asks after an update.
