Slow response / Magic keyboard lag on MacOS?

Marinus Klasen

Software development is hard with a lagging keyboard. If you’re reading this, you’re probably frustrated already. Well, I was..

Monterey update

The advanced options have gone missing since Monterey. Try these terminal commands instead:

Remove Bluetooth preferences by removing the preference file (restart required)

sudo rm /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist

Kill the Bluetooth service

sudo pkill bluetoothd

The magic trick

  • Press SHIFT + OPTION, and click the bluetooth icon
  • Click “Factory reset all connected Apple devices”
  • Remove your bluetooth keyboard from bluetooth devices
  • Reconnect.

Gone is the lagging keyboard!

Others have suggested to “reset the bluetooth module” as well. It’s an option when following the steps above.

Wait, what?

  • If you can’t find the bluetooth icon: Google “bluetooth icon enable macos”
  • If you have trouble reconnecting the keyboard: Google “Connect magic keyboard macos”
