Fix Logitech MX Master / Keys 3S Bluetooth Lag on MacOS
Raw
fix-logitech-bluetooth-lag.md

For those who get issues with input lag on their bluetooth devices, do the following to remove the lag.

  1. Open up Terminal.app (Applications > Utilities > Terminal)
  2. Run the command sudo pkill bluetoothd (just copy and paste that into Terminal).
  3. Hit Return/Enter.
  4. Enter your macOS user password (the one you sign in to your Mac with).
  5. Hit Return/Enter.
  6. Wait for a few moments while the Bluetooth receiver resets and all the devices restart.

Note, this might resolve any issues for bluetooth lag on your computer. I have created a macOS Shortcut to make this easier, this can be found here: https://github.com/lukejones/reset-bluetooth-macos-shortcut

Is anyone else having this issue while using the wireless adapter Logitech provides instead of Bluetooth?

I have the same issue with the receiver. The command works with the bolt receiver as well though, surprisingly.
