Variable Sensitivity preset
This preset ships inside InputConfig, free on the Mac App Store. You don't have to make an account, there are no subscriptions, and nothing is locked. Optimized for Apple silicon.
In this showcase preset, both sticks move the pointer, the right with the Smooth curve and the left with Aggressive. Move each and feel the difference. Then open the rows to see the setting.
Compare the two response curves by moving each stick at the same depth.
Where it is in the app
It ships in the Feature Showcases folder of the sidebar. Activate it, or press Edit to see every row. The file below is the same preset, inactive and ungrouped.

9 rows. Button names are the Xbox / PlayStation pair the editor shows; a Switch Pro Controller fires by position. Options are the row settings that differ from the defaults.
Notes
- Smooth. It is for pointing, and for hands that shake.
- Aggressive. It is for games where reaching full speed quickly matters.
- Linear. It is the third choice, and the one for MIDI and scrolling.
Move both sticks for ten seconds and you will know which curve you want.
