... The soft clicks are OK...

I used to make video tutorials with accentuated mouse clicks until I realized, after the fact, that it's annoying as hell!

... silent clicks...,

The silent mouse clicks, as well as the silent MX Keys, are a blessing whilst livestreaming at church.

It is not good that Logitech Options+ has given up some old mouses.

Clever marketing tactic!

If one have 2 Logi mouses, one newer but bigger for office use, one older but smaller for traverl, he must install both Options and Options+. That's painful.

Logi[tech] are still providing support for older devices, the issue is that they are not including them into the Latest Version of their control software, [Drivers]

I have a worse situation than most as I have the habit of loading the drivers for any Mouse/Keyboard I am "likely" to use with that system, and Logitech devices are too hard wearing that I have to run Options, Options+ and even Setpoint :think:

You can still use "Options" as I do for both my Logitech Craft Keyboard and my MX Master 3 mouse.

I could use Options+ for the mouse, but then I'd also have to run "Options" as my Logitech Craft keyboard isn't supported by Options+, which is complete and utter BS seeing the Craft is a more advanced version of the Logitech Keys keyboard which IS supported by Options+.

Anyway, for me, I've not seen anything in Options+ that has me needing it.

Have you looked lately at what is supported by Options and Options+?

Here's devices supported by Options (scroll down the page).

Originally, I had to use Options for my keyboard (Logitech Craft) and Options+ for my MX Master 3 mouse. Now that "Options" also supports the mouse, I just need one program... Options.

And yeah, if you're using devices needing Setpoint, you're stuck with that software

. Luckily, I've moved from those devices.

@Dru2
I was of the impression that they were going to discontinue the Craft keyboard..., true or false?

I've not seen anything one way or the other, though I've not been looking either.

That said, the Craft was basically a niche item targeted towards photographers/graphic artists. Craft's crown jewel is the "crown" (the big knob on the keyboard) is designed for apps like Lightroom/Photoshop where you can adjust various filters with the tap/turn of a knob. It also supports Microsoft Office apps, and volume control for various media players and other apps through Options.

Besides, the asking price ($200 bucks), many have complained (me included, at the time) the Craft's knob no longer functioned correctly after Adobe's 2021 update of Photoshop. Despite the Crown now working (for me) many are still complaining it doesn't, not only in Photoshop but other Adobe apps it was purported to support.

At the end of the day, I'm not sure Adobe and Logitech are interested in sorting whatever issues; also, the asking price being so high, I can see Logitech discontinuing the Craft.

That said, it is built like a tank and the Crown still works for me in Photoshop, as well as other Windows/third party apps.

Still having problems with Flow losing connection from time to time!

I ditched it completely - doesn't work on Chromebooks, so....

In other news, they invited me to a new beta for an app called Logi Boost - designed to help you share pictures more easily. I'll join for S&G, but I'm on Android and Windows - I already can d o that effortlessly via Google Photos and Google Drive.

I tried it, it's meh..., just another one of those sharing apps!

They're getting heavy on the junk mail lately though! Thinkin of Unsubscribing!

By the way...
If anybody's using a Master 3S and finding their cursor is going squirrely all the time, you gotta disable the 8K sensor...

Nor my Logitech Craft keyboard which I still think is total BS! Especially considering they support the Logitech Keys which basically the same KB, just without the apps knob the Craft has.
