You don’t need separate apps to set scrolling directions for the trackpad and external nice. It’s all in System Preferences.

They're separate tickboxes yes, but if you tick one it ticks the other.

At least it did when I still used macOS on portables. Now I only have a mini left for work

I just checked on my work Macbook, this is still correct and utterly stupid behaviour. 'Natural scroll direction' is global for all pointer devices. Internal, external trackpad and mouse.

The toggle bundles trackpad and scrolling setting in one - I want to have their "natural scroll direction" on trackpad and reverse on mice.

Scroll reverser allows you to set them up separately.
