[!WARNING] OpenLogi is under active development and not yet stable β features and config may still change. Give the repo a Star β and Watch π it to get notified the moment a release lands.
Options+ ? Try OpenLogi.
Remap buttons, drive DPI and SmartShift, and switch profiles per app β without a Logitech account, telemetry, or the official Options+ install. No cloud, plain TOML config; the only network calls are device-image fetches and an opt-in, off-by-default update check.
What it is
OpenLogi talks to Logitech HID++ mice over a Logi Bolt receiver β or a Bluetooth-direct / wired connection β without running Logi Options+. It ships two binaries:
- OpenLogi GUI β a GPUI desktop app: an interactive mouse diagram with clickable hotspots, a per-button action picker (41 built-in actions plus custom keyboard shortcuts authored in the TOML config), DPI presets, a SmartShift panel (wheel mode, sensitivity, permanent ratchet), per-application profile overlays, a device carousel that switches between paired devices live, and a Settings window with a UI localized into 20 languages.
- OpenLogi CLI β a CLI for headless inventory (
list) plus asset-sync and on-device diagnostic subcommands.
Everything is local: bindings live in a plain TOML file, button presses are remapped through the OS event tap, and DPI / SmartShift changes are written straight to the device over HID++.
macOS and Linux are supported. Windows is an early, untested preview β signed builds ship with each release; see Roadmap.
Beyond Options+
Things OpenLogi does that Options+ won't:
- Run on Linux. Options+ ships for macOS and Windows only. OpenLogi treats
Linux as a first-class platform: evdev/uinput hook, udev rules, a systemd
user unit, and
.deb/.rpmpackages. - Move the Gesture Button. Pick which physical button owns the gesture role β the dedicated Gesture Button, middle, back, or forward β with per-direction swipe bindings, or turn gestures off entirely. Options+ pins the gesture role to the dedicated Gesture Button.
- Keep config in plain text. Everything is one TOML file you can read, diff, version-control, and copy between machines.
- Script it. A real CLI: device inventory, asset prefetch, and on-device HID++ diagnostics (feature dump, DPI / SmartShift round-trips).
- Stay light. Native Rust + GPUI binaries β no Electron suite, no resident updaters, no account, no telemetry.
Roadmap
| Capability | State |
|---|---|
| Discover Bolt receivers + list paired devices (CLI + GUI) | β |
| Unifying receivers (older protocol, replaced by Bolt) | β |
| Bluetooth-direct / wired devices (no receiver) | β |
| Battery percentage / charge state | β (online devices) |
| Interactive GUI: carousel, mouse diagram, action picker | β macOS + Linux |
| Button remapping via the OS event tap / evdev hook | β macOS + Linux |
| 41-action catalog + custom keyboard shortcuts (TOML-authored) | β macOS + LinuxΒΉ |
DPI control + presets + Cycle / Set-preset actions (HID++ 0x2201) |
β |
SmartShift wheel: mode toggle + sensitivity + permanent-ratchet panel (HID++ 0x2111) |
β |
| Per-application profile overlays (auto-switch on app focus) | β macOS, π‘ Linux (X11 only) |
| Settings window: launch-at-login, update check, menu-bar, permissions, language | β macOS + Linux |
| Interface localization (20 languages: da, de, el, en, es, fi, fr, it, ja, ko, nb, nl, pl, pt-BR, pt-PT, ru, sv, zh-CN, zh-HK, zh-TW) | β |
Linux packaging: udev rules, systemd unit, .deb / .rpm |
β Linux |
| Gesture-button per-direction bindings | π‘ configurable; hardware capture pending |
| Middle / mode-shift / thumbwheel button capture | π‘ configurable; hook owns side buttons only |
| Windows (agent, GUI, event hook) | π‘ untested preview β signed .exe / .msi ship per release |
ΒΉ Media key actions use D-Bus MPRIS on Linux; a handful of macOS-specific actions (e.g. Launchpad) have no Linux equivalent and are no-ops.
Install
[!IMPORTANT] Quit Logi Options+ first β the two applications fight over HID++ access and only one can own a given receiver at a time.
macOS
Download the signed, notarized .dmg from the latest release and drag OpenLogi.app to /Applications.
Or install via Homebrew:
The official Homebrew cask is the default installation path. To explicitly
track the latest GitHub release from aprilnea/tap instead:
openlogi@latest is maintained by OpenLogi's release workflow and may update
before the official cask autobump lands. Install either openlogi or
openlogi@latest, not both.
Linux
Download the .deb or .rpm from the latest release:
# Debian / Ubuntu
# Fedora / RHEL
Packages are published for both x86_64/amd64 and arm64/aarch64.
The package installs udev rules that grant your user access to
/dev/hidraw* and /dev/uinput without sudo. After installation,
enable the background agent for your user:
See docs/INSTALL-linux.md for manual / source installs and distros without systemd.
Windows (preview)
Signed .exe and per-user .msi installers (x86_64 and arm64) are attached to
each release. Windows support is an early preview that hasn't been broadly
tested on real hardware yet β expect rough edges, and please
report issues.
