How to install HapticPad
-
Mac app
Download HapticPad
Download HapticPad from the Mac App Store. Once installed it will appear as a small icon in your menu bar - no Dock clutter.

Browser extension
Install the Chrome or Safari extension
The extension detects when your cursor hovers over elements, and signals the Mac app to fire haptic feedback. It sends only element type - no page data ever leaves your browser.
No browsing data collected
To install the Safari extension, open the install file, drag to Applications, then open the HapticPad for Safari app.

Settings
Configure your haptic patterns
Click the HapticPad icon in your menu bar to open Settings. Choose which haptic pattern fires for links, buttons, and inputs - or leave the defaults and start browsing immediately.
There are seven patterns to choose from: single pulse, double (fast / medium / slow), triple (fast / slow), and quad.
Each element type - link, button, input - can be configured independently.
