Logitech is further expanding its MX ecosystem and adding several new features to the well-known productivity platform for more efficient workflows. The focus is on improvements for Enhanced Easy Switch, the expansion of the Actions Ring to the entire MX portfolio and new productivity plug-ins for Microsoft Office, Notion and Slack. Logitech aims to further optimize the interaction between hardware and software and significantly simplify work processes for professional users. The update promises tangible benefits, particularly for users in the office, home office and creative environment.
- Enhanced Easy Switch connects keyboard, mouse and dialpad at the touch of a button
- Actions Ring will be supported across the entire Logitech MX portfolio in future
- New productivity plugins available for Microsoft Office, Notion and Slack
- Functions are available free of charge via Logi Options+ and the Logi Marketplace
Logitech MX ecosystem improves device switching and workflow automation
With Enhanced Easy Switch, Logitech responds directly to requests from the community and significantly simplifies switching between multiple workstations. Previously, users often had to switch keyboard and mouse separately to different computers. With the new function, a single keystroke on the MX Keys S or MX Keys Mini is now enough for the paired MX Mouse and MX Creative Dialpad to follow automatically.
This allows several devices to switch synchronously between different computers without the need for manual reconnection. This saves time and significantly reduces interruptions in the workflow, especially in hybrid working environments with a desktop PC, notebook and home office setup.
The function is compatible with all Logi-Bolt devices. The feature is already available for MX Keys S and MX Keys Mini with the latest firmware. Owners of an MX Mechanical or MX Mechanical Mini will have to be patient until summer 2026, when the corresponding firmware update is due to follow.
This step shows that Logitech increasingly sees the MX ecosystem as a cohesive platform and not just a collection of individual premium devices. This ensures a more consistent user experience and strengthens the practical added value of the entire system.
Actions Ring and new plugins make the Logitech MX ecosystem more flexible
Another important innovation concerns the Actions Ring, which will be available across the entire MX portfolio in the future. Previously, this function was only available on selected devices. Now, MX Master 3S, MX Master 4 (our test), MX Anywhere 3S, MX Keys S, MX Keys Mini and the Mechanical models, among others, will benefit from the extended support.
Newly added are nested folder structures within the Actions Ring. This allows digital shortcuts to be organized much more clearly, which is particularly helpful for complex workflows with many functions. In addition, the icon editor has also been modernized. Custom designs for the Actions Ring and MX Keypad can now be created more individually and applied to the entire setup with a single click.
At the same time, Logitech is expanding the MX ecosystem with new productivity plugins. These bring additional control options directly into familiar applications such as Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Notion Desktop and Slack. Spreadsheets can be navigated more quickly, presentations can be controlled more precisely and Slack huddles can be started directly via a shortcut.

The plugins not only improve the use of the MX Creative Console as a hardware controller, but also integrate into the entire MX system. This results in a much smoother workflow with fewer context switches and shorter work paths.
Conclusion
With the new functions, Logitech is strengthening the MX ecosystem as a productive platform for modern workplaces. Enhanced Easy Switch, the extended Actions Ring and the new Productivity Plugins noticeably improve multitasking and workflow automation in particular. The practical benefits increase significantly, especially for users with multiple devices or creative work processes. The updates are now available free of charge via Logi Options+ and in the Logi Marketplace and do not require any new hardware.
