Is it a Mac thing? I've had issues with Logitech software even on Windows.

Their mice hardware is pretty good, but the software is so bad I never install it and just use whatever works on the mouse by default.

On Mac I use the magic trackpad for wireless because it's the only one I've found that consistently works with the bluetooth connection. I'm not sure who is at fault, but other bluetooth devices just constantly have issues (drop connection, fail to wake, fail to pair, etc.)

For wired I sometimes use one of the Razer "Gaming" mice - I don't like the aesthetic, but there aren't a lot of great options in that category and they work well enough.

Apple mice have never been good - they've always been form instead of good design.



I've had good luck with the MX Anywhere 3. It's worked pretty much painlessly over bluetooth with two iPads and two Macs. (And I didn't install any extra software.)

Thanks - I've mostly used their Marathon mice in the past, but I'll check that one out.
