Knock
Knock on your MacBook to control your Mac
Overview
What it is
Knock turns taps on your MacBook into instant actions. Switch tabs, change desktops, play/pause music, open apps, run custom scripts, or take screenshots - all with a simple knock. Tap the desk beside your laptop or knock on the MacBook’s chassis (not the trackpad). Knock uses the built-in accelerometer in Apple Silicon MacBooks to trigger customizable shortcuts.
Intent
I need it when
Improve accessibility and reduce physical strain from input devices
Tap-based control offers an alternative input method that may reduce repetitive strain injuries and provide accessibility benefits for users with limited keyboard or mouse mobility
Reduce reliance on keyboard and mouse for Mac control
Knock enables users to control their Mac through taps on trackpad, MacBook surface, or iPhone, replacing traditional input methods with gesture-based shortcuts for faster, more ergonomic interaction
Create custom shortcuts and automate repetitive Mac tasks
Knock converts tap gestures into customizable shortcuts, allowing users to automate workflows and access frequently used functions without navigating menus or typing commands
Drop
Not a fit when
- User runs Windows or Linux operating systems, as Knock is Mac-exclusive
- User needs traditional keyboard and mouse input methods and cannot adapt to tap-based control
- User has older Mac models that do not support native tapping or trackpad tap mode
- User requires enterprise-grade software with dedicated support and SLAs
- User needs cross-platform compatibility across multiple device ecosystems
