Tested on: M1 MacBook Pro, macOS Tahoe (26.x), Logi Options+ 2.3.879545

logi-wake-fix

Automatically restarts the Logi Options+ background agent after macOS sleep/wake — silently, with no app window popping up.

Note: I created this script to solve a specific annoyance on my own machine. It is provided as-is, and I do not actively maintain it or provide support.

Problem

On Apple Silicon Macs, logioptionsplus_agent loses its device connection after sleep. Device settings (button mappings, DPI, etc.) stop working until you manually open Logi Options+.

Solution

Uses sleepwatcher to detect wake events and restart the agent via pkill. Since the agent is registered with launchd (com.logi.cp-dev-mgr, KeepAlive=true), launchd respawns it automatically and silently.

The agent is event-driven (IOKit HID notifications), so it doesn't need devices to be enumerated at startup — it picks them up as they announce themselves. This means we can kill and restart it immediately on wake with no fixed delay.

Files

File	Purpose
logi-wake-restart.sh	The wake script — kills the stale agent and polls until launchd restarts it
install.sh	One-time setup (installs sleepwatcher, deploys script)
uninstall.sh	Cleanly removes the fix

Requirements

• macOS (Apple Silicon)
• Homebrew
• Logi Options+ installed

Install

chmod +x install.sh && ./install.sh

That's it. The fix survives reboots automatically.

Verify

After waking your Mac from sleep, check the log:

cat ~/Library/Logs/logi-wake-restart.log

Expected output:

[2026-05-26 01:07:01] (+0s) System woke — restarting logioptionsplus_agent...
[2026-05-26 01:07:01] (+0s) logioptionsplus_agent killed — waiting for launchd to restart it...
[2026-05-26 01:07:01] (+0s) logioptionsplus_agent is running again (polled for 0.4s). ✓
[2026-05-26 01:07:01] (+0s) Done.

The full restart typically completes in under 1 second.

Uninstall

chmod +x uninstall.sh && ./uninstall.sh
