There is a new iOS update for mac. Will the program still work if I update my mac?

I can confirm it works with Big Sur 11.2! What I use:

Anyway, whenever I restart the Mac the lights colors go out of sync and the keyboard brightness sets itself to 50%. I can't tell if this problem occured also in the previous version, but it can easly be solved with "Spectrum All Devices" or "Refresh Device List".

I can confirm it also works on Big Sur 11.3 Developer Beta 1 (20E5172i)! What I use:

*Amazon supposedly is delivering my Huntsman v2 Analog today (was supposed to be last Sunday), so I will test that, but there is no support for that yet.

I experienced the same problem with the light sync between both mouse zones and the eGPU (no card in it, so I can only speak to one zone on it at the moment), but my resolution was a permanent fix and provided numerous other benefits (applies to Big Sur 11.1+ as I have used this method on those):

  1. Download and Install Razer Synapse 2 Remember to add all permissions it asks for. Note: it might not think it has them at this step, so if that is the case do not worry.

  2. Added the Device Engine Kernel to the kernel consent list (no need to disable SIP)

  1. Synapse 2 will work again, so login to your Razer Account
  2. Check the "link application" box and select Razer MacOS
  3. Make sure that under "Lighting" in Razer Synapse 2, "link zones" is on

This also allows all functionality of legacy Razer devices that used Synapse 2 including the sensitive stages customization for mouses and seamlessly integrates with Razer MacOS. The beautiful part is that despite the Razer Core X Chroma never using Synapse 2, it is able to keep it synced with the mouse, but again can only speak to one zone until graphics cards are in stock.

Can this issue be closed?

Thank you @WrathofthePast for this solution. It only works on Intel macs though. I have an M1 Mac and the official Razer Synapse extension does not work at all. If razer-macos won't let me set buttons, and Razer has no interest in providing official support, then I'll just look into getting another mouse.

@TV4Fun, download USB Overdrive to set your buttons however you want them and download razer-macos to control the lights, DPI, & polling rate. This solution also works for keyboards (note that function keys, modifier keys, & others can already be remapped in System Settings).

Thanks @WrathofthePast, I decided a simpler solution was just to buy a different mouse.
