Battery percentage idea/request
I used the FEEDBACK tab to submit an idea a few days ago, but received an email from Logitech Support implying that they could not help me with my issue. Very confusing and I still am not sure whether or not that feedback was successfully received and is being considered. So I will just summarize what I wrote...
I've had an MX Keys for almost 1 year. I love the premium look and especially feel of the keyboard, but have always found it upsetting that there is no real-time battery percentage status available anywhere. The old Options software shows a battery icon, but it is not too different from the new (Beta) Options+ which also shows an icon with the added feature of giving you a message saying battery is full or good or low when you hover the mouse over it.
I would very much appreciate a real time battery percentage status display - something that will tell me the keyboard (and mouse) is at 47%, 83%, 6%. Having such a thing in the Options+ app would be truly great and MUCH needed, but it would be an added bonus to have a Mac menu item (and a Windows tray item) that would also give the accurate battery percentage status. This way one does not necessarily have to open the Options+ software if they just want to see the device’s battery status.
I am using the FEEDBACK button in the Options+ beta to write this so I am hoping you receive it this time. If possible, please let me know because I have other ideas as well as the fact that I am deliberately using the beta software with the intention of reporting bugs. I want to feel confident that my efforts at corresponding with the beta team is successfully transmitting.
Thank you.
