reWASD for Mac
reWASD is Windows-only; its developers have said a macOS version is not planned. Its strengths are per-game configs, shift layers and a community library.
Steps
- Install InputConfig and allow Accessibility access.
- Pair the controller.
- Pick a preset or build one with Scan.
- Activate.
The free Mac alternative
On a Mac, InputConfig covers the same ground: per-preset layouts that switch with a shortcut or a button, chords as a shift layer, macros, turbo, and a library of 450+ game and app layouts, for free. InputConfig is on the Mac App Store; the free controller mapper comparison lists every option we know of honestly, including the ones that are not us.
Switching in five minutes
- Install InputConfig from the Mac App Store and allow Accessibility access.
- Pair the controller if it is not already.
- Pick a built-in preset or search the Smart Preset Maker for the game or app.
- Open the editor to change any row: Scan a button, choose what it sends.
- Activate. The menu bar icon and the emergency stop turn it off instantly.
