Apple’s Magic Mouse just got a whole lot better

When I found Magic Prefs which is a Magic Mouse preference and configuration utility for OSX. Without this program, the mouse only comes with 2 touch sensitive gestures. I have no idea why Apple wouldn’t want to capitalize on more features with this fully functional multi touch surface. But the good news is, with Magic Prefs you can configure a very broad range of clicks, touches, swipes, and pinches to actions with your mouse making it a true multi touch surface.

I have had my Magic Mouse for a couple weeks now and my biggest pet peeve with is was the physical click. It’s not like other mice where its easy to press down on left and right click, the Magic Mouse is very noticeably harder and you really tend to notice it after couple hours of use. With each click I seem to be more and more conscious of my physical ability to left and right click. Lucky for me with Magic Prefs you can configure tap left and right tap clicks just like the multi-touch pad on the Macbook Pro. It’s a very little and simple feature, but has made me a much happier Magic Mouse user.

I highly suggest checking out Magic Prefs if you own a Magic Mouse.
