OpenLogi is a native, local-first alternative to Logitech Options+, written in Rust, that runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
The tool solves the problem of controlling Logitech mice, keyboards, and webcams without relying on Logitech's official software, which many users find bloated or privacy-invasive. It communicates directly with devices over the HID++ protocol and UVC standards, allowing users to remap buttons, adjust DPI settings, configure SmartShift wheel behavior, and control Litra lights. Configuration is stored in a single TOML file rather than locked behind a proprietary system, and the tool includes both a GUI and a command-line interface for scripting.
OpenLogi suits users who want lightweight device control without creating a Logitech account or accepting telemetry. It is particularly valuable for Linux users, where Logitech Options+ has no official support, and for anyone who prefers plain-text configuration they can version-control and sync across machines. The tool distinguishes itself by allowing gestures to be assigned to any physical button and by offering per-application profile overlays that automatically switch when you focus a different application on macOS and Windows. The README explicitly notes that OpenLogi is under active development and not yet stable, with features and configuration still subject to change.
The project maintains a substantial base of real-world users, as evidenced by the fact that almost all open issues are raised by outside users rather than the core team. Maintainers typically respond to new issues and pull requests within a few days. Work in the issue tracker is dominated by triage needs, bug reports, and macOS-specific issues.
