We have launched on ProductHunt! 🎉🚀

FeelMyMac is officially live on Product Hunt! 🚀
Hey everyone!

After an incredible launch here on Reddit, and after all the feedback, downloads, ideas, and support you’ve given FeelMyMac, today we’re taking another big step:

FeelMyMac is now live on Product Hunt. 💜

👉 Launch on ProductHunt

It still feels a little crazy seeing how far this small idea has come in such a short time.

A lot of FeelMyMac has already been shaped by the people who discovered it here, so if you’ve tried the app, I’d genuinely love to see you over there too.

Check out the launch, leave your feedback, ask questions, or simply tell us what you’d like to see next.

Thank you for being part of FeelMyMac from the beginning. 🫶

This is just the start. 🚀

FeelMyMac: an app that lets you feel different textures through your Mac’s trackpad

Hey r/macapps, I'm TheHighJack, the developer of FeelMyMac.

I wanted to change how my Mac feels, not just how it looks.

FeelMyMac adds haptic textures to cursor movement and scrolling on a compatible trackpad. Instead of only feeling feedback when you click, you can feel a simulated surface as you move.

There are six materials: Felt, Bouclé, Pebbled, Fine grit, Soft grid and Line grid. Movement, scrolling and tap feedback can be enabled separately, and the accompanying sound is optional.

The goal isn't to add another workflow or promise to make you more productive. It's simply to make using your Mac feel more satisfying.

I've attached a short video to show the idea. Obviously, you can't feel haptics through a video, so there's a free demo to try on your own trackpad.

Comparison

HapticPad focuses on haptic cues when hovering over links, buttons and inputs in a browser.

FeelMyMac focuses on the movement itself: giving cursor movement and scrolling a material-like texture, rather than signalling that you've reached something clickable.

Pricing

The free demo includes Felt, Bouclé and one sound profile, with no time limit. No account, email or payment card required.

The full license is $3.99 USD, paid once. It unlocks all six materials, additional sound controls and keyboard sounds. Future updates are included, with no subscription.

Free demo:

Full license:

Compatibility and privacy

Requires macOS 15.1 or later. Haptic and Material feedback are currently verified on Apple-silicon Macs with a compatible trackpad. External trackpad support includes the current USB-C Magic Trackpad; compatibility is checked locally by the app.

Enabled interaction feedback requires Accessibility permission. Input events are processed locally, and the app doesn't record typed text or send interaction data to us.

About the developer

I'm Leonardo Curtone, also known as TheHighJack.
