A few of the gestures people set up first.
Small app. Lots of reach.
Tapko lives in the menu bar and stays out of the way until your fingers ask for something.

Questions
Why does Tapko need Accessibility access?
To click, press keys and close windows for you, macOS requires the Accessibility permission. Tapko uses it only to run the actions you set up.
macOS says it can't verify Tapko. What do I do?
Tapko isn't distributed through the App Store. The first time you open it, macOS may block it. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway. You only do this once; updates install without it.
Will it clash with the system gestures?
Tapko warns you when a gesture is also used by macOS, for example a three finger swipe, and opens the trackpad settings so you can turn the system one off.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every new install gets all Pro features for 7 days, with no key or card needed. After that Tapko keeps working as the free version with 2 gestures, unless you buy Pro.
How do I activate Pro?
After you buy, you get a license key by email. Paste it in Tapko → Settings → About.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. If Tapko doesn't work for you, write within 14 days of purchase and you'll get your money back.
