Original Summary

Hey HN!<p>Owner of a first generation Logitech MX Master [1] and MX Keys S here, frequently switching between two Macs. Every time the mouse has to be turned over to access the button at the bottom, and keyboard has to be switched on it&#x27;s own.<p>Logitech finally released an Options+ feature [2, 3] to switch multiple peripherals at the same time, with a single key press. The only problem - my ol&#x27; reliable isn&#x27;t supported. It&#x27;s a Unifying device, and only Bolt is officially supported. [4]<p>So, I made a fix - The Mouse Is Coming Too. There are 3 mini-apps, each coresponding to a different host device. Running any of them will switch both the mouse and the keyboard to a given host. They are mappable to &quot;Open application&quot; in Options+, so a programmable key can be used to trigger them.<p>Tested with MX Master and MX Keys S, but should work with any models recognised by Options+<p>[1] v1, bough some 9 years ago, and released in 2025. Still going strong after some ~9 years, micro-USB to USB-C conversion, skates replacement, stuck thumb button [5], and more than a few falls<p>[2] Yes, I should switch to something better<p>[3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;marketplace.logi.com&#x2F;releasenotes&#x2F;optionsplus&#x2F;en#2.6.936369" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;marketplace.logi.com&#x2F;releasenotes&#x2F;optionsplus&#x2F;en#2.6...</a><p>[4] To make it a bit more absurd, &quot;easy switch&quot; for this mouse already exists and works, but is accessible only through Options+ Action ring. Tried giving it a fair chance, but it&#x27;s too cumbersome.<p>[5] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=3WNP1mnZx58" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=3WNP1mnZx58</a>
