Editorial interest 79/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A native macOS utility for fine-grained scrolling, brightness and color controls, plus a customizable orb of system commands.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-20 issue.

For: Mac users who want finer display and system controls
Worth noticing: Apple Watch battery status appears as a dash because macOS has no public API for reading it.

Field notes

The scrolling method accumulates wheel events and emits them on each display refresh, while brightness uses the CoreGraphics gamma table rather than relying on DDC/CI monitor support. The floating rail can be placed along any screen edge, with commands reordered or removed and added through a plus menu. The page also notes that Apple Watch battery status is shown as a dash because macOS has no public API for it.
