-
Why does my keyboard lose connection when I use multiple Bluetooth devices?
Our keyboard is fully compliant with Bluetooth SIG (BTSIG) standards, and we’ve implemented our Bluetooth stack as closely to the standard as possible. However, when using multiple Bluetooth keyboards or peripherals simultaneously, there is a possibility that our keyboard may lose connection.
This issue is particularly common with macOS, which actively manages the list of connected Bluetooth devices and tends to prioritize Apple peripherals like the Magic Keyboard or Magic Trackpad. If you’re using our keyboard alongside these Apple devices, macOS may “favor” the Apple peripherals and deprioritize our keyboard, causing it to disconnect.
Rest assured, this behavior is a limitation of how macOS manages Bluetooth devices and is not a result of any non-compliance on our part. For the best experience, we recommend minimizing the number of active Bluetooth keyboards or peripherals connected to your Mac at the same time.
