If you are experiencing bluetooth lag such as slow or jerky input on your devices, resetting the bluetooth chip in your mac might fix the issue.

The shortcut simply runs a shell script to reset the bluetooth device in your mac: sudo pkill bluetoothd.

All bluetooth devices will briefly disconnect before reconecting.


This has helped me fix the lag that appears on my Logitech MX Master 3S / MX Master Keys in the past.
