Summary

You no longer need a different receiver for each device. For example, you may have a keyboard and mouse at home, other devices at work, and a mobile mouse when you’re on the go – all can be connected to the same Logitech Unifying receiver and be instantly ready to use.

Add devices to your Unifying receiver.

This software will allow you to add or remove compatible mice, keyboards and other devices to your unifying receiver.

The tiny receiver stays plugged in.

Because the Unifying receiver is so small, you can leave it permanently plugged into your notebook and it only uses one USB port, so you’ll have ports free for other things.

Supported platforms: Chrome OS, Mac OS, Windows Not officially supported: Linux

Have M705 mouse, long dead, corroded batteries - not a happy mouse! Have K270 keyboard, also dead. Cleaned mouse terminals, new batteries in both, ran Logitech software on Chromebook - everything works!! Will use keyboard and mouse for my Pi 5!!! Have 3 dongles, keyboard responded to one, mouse did not initially respond to any.

I have multiple usb ports keyboards and mice laying around. Ive brought more wireless sets than i care to admit. Somehow they all end up separated not connected and I can never keep the usb with the keyboard/mouse. Looked online before making yet another trip to Target for a new keyboard and found this software. Within 5 minutes keyboard and mouse were connected and I dont have to type on my laptop. What a lifesaver.
