MrFixable

BetterTouchTool alternative for Mac

A BetterTouchTool alternative for Mac makes sense if you only use it for a few common jobs. BetterTouchTool lets you build almost any gesture, shortcut or automation yourself. MrFixable gives you ready-made fixes instead, like Window Snapping, Window Switcher, Clipboard History and Mouse Back & Forward, each turned on with one switch, for $19.99 once.

Where each one is better

BetterTouchTool is better for
  • Far more flexible: hundreds of triggers and actions, so you can build almost any shortcut, gesture or automation.
  • It customizes trackpad and Magic Mouse gestures, Stream Deck, gamepads and MIDI controllers, which MrFixable doesn't touch.
  • Window snapping by dragging, with snap areas you define yourself.
  • Scripting, per-app conditions and Apple Shortcuts for real automation.
  • A longer free trial (45 days), and it runs on macOS 12 Monterey and 13 Ventura.
MrFixable is better for
  • Nothing to build: each fix works as soon as you turn it on, with sensible default shortcuts.
  • It goes beyond input and windows, with fixes like per-app volume, a battery charge limit, Finder cut and paste, and Free Up Space, in the same app.
  • Clipboard History never keeps passwords copied from password manager apps.
  • Mouse Back & Forward makes side buttons work in Safari, Finder, Mail and the App Store, with no rule to set up for each app.
Choose BetterTouchTool if
Power users who want to customize gestures, mice, keyboards and other devices, and build their own automations.
Choose MrFixable if
People who want the common jobs done without setup, like snapping and switching windows or clipboard history, plus other everyday Mac fixes.

Switching from BetterTouchTool

Note the BetterTouchTool shortcuts you use, then turn off those triggers or quit BetterTouchTool, so two apps don't react to the same keys. In MrFixable, turn on the matching fixes: Window Snapping, Move & Resize from Anywhere, Window Switcher, Clipboard History, Mouse Back & Forward or App Shortcuts, and allow Accessibility access. Record your old shortcuts in Window Snapping and App Shortcuts if you want to keep them.

Questions

  • How much does BetterTouchTool cost?

    A Standard license costs $15 and includes two years of updates. A Lifetime license costs $25. Prices vary by country and tax, and BetterTouchTool is also part of the Setapp subscription. You can try it free for 45 days. MrFixable costs $19.99 once, with a 14-day free trial.
  • Can MrFixable do trackpad gestures?

    No. MrFixable doesn't add or change trackpad or Magic Mouse gestures, and it doesn't support Stream Deck or gamepads. If you rely on custom gestures, keep BetterTouchTool for those. MrFixable covers keyboard shortcuts, mouse side buttons, window snapping, window switching and clipboard history with ready-made fixes.
  • Can I use BetterTouchTool and MrFixable together?

    Yes, as long as each job belongs to one app. If BetterTouchTool snaps windows with ⌃⌥ and an arrow key, for example, turn off that trigger or MrFixable's Window Snapping, so a shortcut does one thing. Every MrFixable fix has its own switch, so you only turn on the ones you need.
  • Does MrFixable have a window switcher like BetterTouchTool?

    Yes. Window Switcher shows the open windows on your current desktop when you hold ⌥ and press Tab, with a preview of each. Let go to switch. It doesn't list minimized windows or windows on other desktops, and its shortcut is always ⌥Tab, which is Alt-Tab on a Windows keyboard.
