If you want to buy one of Logitech"s recently announced accessories for PC and Mac, such as the Logitech MX Creative Keypad and Dialpad, you may also want to update the Logitech Options+ app. This app allows you to personalize your devices, update firmware, and more. While mice and keyboards work even without the Logitech Options+ app, the program is essential for the MX Creative console.
In case you missed it, the MX Creative console is Logitech"s attempt to rival Elgato"s Stream Deck by offering customers extra controls and customizable buttons with built-in displays for more productive work in creative software and other applications. The MX Creative will be available on October 15, and the app for its customization is already available for download.
Besides the MX Creative support, Logitech Options+ version 1.83 fixes bugs and adds compatibility with the Alto Keys K98M, the Ergo M575S Trackball, and the MX Ergo S Plus. Here is the full changelog:
