Before you install

  • Mac Remapper needs Accessibility access to remap keys system-wide — you'll be prompted to grant it on first launch.
  • The app isn't signed or notarized by Apple, so macOS will warn you the first time you open it. You only need to approve it once (see step 3 below).
  • Your key mappings are stored locally in ~/Library/Application Support/MacRemapper and never leave your Mac.

Installing

  1. Download the .dmg above and open it.
  2. Drag Mac Remapper into your Applications folder.
  3. Open Mac Remapper. macOS will say it can't verify the app — click Done. Then open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down, click Open Anyway next to the Mac Remapper message, and confirm. You only need to do this once.
  4. Grant Accessibility access when prompted, then start creating profiles from the menu bar icon.
