What is Smart Scroll?
Smart Scroll is a Windows utility that transforms your volume knob into a smooth scroll wheel with intelligent mode switching.
Problem
Users rely on traditional scrolling methods (mouse wheels, touchpads) that require physically switching between devices or adjusting their hand positions frequently and offer limited scrolling control for precision tasks.
Solution
A Windows utility tool that lets users remap their volume knob to a scroll wheel, enabling seamless vertical/horizontal scrolling and mode switching (e.g., fine-grained vs. rapid scrolling) without hardware changes.
Customers
Audio engineers, data analysts, and professionals working with large datasets or creative software (DAWs, video editors) requiring hands-on hardware control; multi-device users seeking ergonomic efficiency.
Unique Features
Leverages existing hardware (volume knobs) for dual functionality, intelligent mode auto-switching based on application context (e.g., fine scroll in Excel, rapid scroll in browsers).
