🐿️ 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.
You can download Squirrel directly, or use Homebrew.
brew tap hkamran80/things
brew install hkamran80/things/squirrelNote: Squirrel requires macOS Ventura (13.0) or higher. Big Sur support coming soon.

Squirrel uses your Mac's accessibility controls to simulate a "drag" gesture.
Please add native scroll support to the Simulator! Feels like such a small feature but it'll be very welcome.
