Kinesis
Control your Mac with the Meta Neural Band
Kinesis is a highly experimental macOS app that lets you control your Mac with a Meta Neural Band. Swipe between desktops, open Mission Control, control music, and pinch and turn for volume or brightness. You choose the gesture mappings, practice them in setup, and keep the app in the menu bar.

Overview
Who is it for?
Meta Neural Band owners on a Mac who want gesture controls for everyday actions.
Problem
The Meta Neural Band's gestures only work with Meta's own devices out of the box.
Solution
A native macOS app that pairs with the band and maps its gestures to Mac controls you configure.
What makes it unique
Enrolls the Mac with Meta once, keeps the session token in the Keychain, and connects without Meta afterwards.
Kinesis FAQ
What do I need?
A Meta Neural Band and a Mac running macOS 14 or later, on Apple silicon or Intel.
Why does it ask me to sign in with Meta?
The band only works with an owner Meta has enrolled. Kinesis performs that enrollment for your Mac once and stores only the session token in your Keychain, not your password.
Is it stable?
The author describes it as highly experimental; some things may act quirky or not work.
