Squirrel

๐Ÿฟ๏ธโ€‚Pronounced: Scroll-Wheel

A menu bar app that adds scrolling to the simulator.

  • For some reason, you can't scroll in Xcode's simulator.
  • This app enables scrolling again!
  • Features: customizable settings, made with SwiftUI, and a cute squirrel.

Installation

You can download Squirrel directly, or use Homebrew.

brew tap hkamran80/things
brew install hkamran80/things/squirrel

Note: Squirrel requires macOS Ventura (13.0) or higher. Big Sur support coming soon.

Notes

  • Press ESC to stop scrolling, in case something bugs out.
  • Trackpad support is currently unstable. Most scroll wheels should work.

Author Contributing Need Help?
Squirrel is made by aheze. All contributions are welcome. Just fork the repo, then make a pull request. Open an issue or join the Discord server. You can also ping me on Twitter. Or read the source code โ€” there's lots of comments.

How does it work?

Squirrel uses your Mac's accessibility controls to simulate a "drag" gesture.

Apple, if you're reading this:

Please add native scroll support to the Simulator! Feels like such a small feature but it'll be very welcome.
