Overview
Slidr is a trackpad control app for Mac that turns simple edge swipes into fast volume and brightness controls. Slide along the right edge for volume or the left edge for brightness. It feels oddly natural. Like your Mac forgot to ship with it. Haptic feedback makes every adjustment feel physical, while smart typing detection helps avoid accidental triggers. Slidr also supports external monitor brightness through DDC, so you can stop hunting for monitor buttons like it’s 2009. The app lives quietly in your menu bar, launches at login, and stays ready whenever your fingers are.
