Devices connect via Logi Bolt, Unifying receivers, Bluetooth, or wired.

Windows is the newest port, validated end-to-end on Windows 11, but rough edges are expected.

Windows is the newest port, validated end-to-end on Windows 11, but rough edges are expected.Does it work on Linux, or is it macOS-only like the official app?It runs natively on macOS 13+, Linux, and Windows. Linux is first-class: x86_64 and arm64 packages (GLIBC 2.35+), a NixOS module, and udev rules that grant access to /dev/hidraw and /dev/uinput without sudo.

All settings live in one TOML file that you sync between machines yourself.

Any Logitech UVC webcam (Brio, StreamCam, C920 series) is plug and play — image controls are written to the camera hardware, so they apply in Zoom, Meet, OBS, and every other app.

Media-key actions go through D-Bus MPRIS on Linux, where a few macOS-specific actions are no-ops.
