Logitech Issues Manual macOS Fix After Expired Certificate Breaks Options+ and G HUB

The expired certificate means users must manually install a patch to restore functionality.

Overview

  • An expired Developer ID certificate caused Logi Options+ and G HUB to stop running on macOS, leaving custom button mappings, gestures, and scrolling features unusable and in some cases triggering boot loops.
  • Logitech released a patch that must be downloaded and run manually because the certificate lapse also disabled the apps’ in‑app updaters.
  • The fix is available for macOS 13 Ventura, macOS 14 Sonoma, macOS 15 Sequoia, and macOS 26 Tahoe, with support for older macOS versions promised later.
  • Logitech says device profiles and customizations are preserved after patching, and it advises users not to uninstall the apps before applying the patch to avoid losing configurations.
  • Windows users were not affected, Logitech publicly apologized for what it called an “inexcusable mistake,” and the company says the incident did not introduce security vulnerabilities.
