Bluetooth mouse is laggy and stuttering on Mac

Mouse stuttering is caused by low battery, interference, or a corrupted connection. Charge the mouse, move away from WiFi routers, and remove other Bluetooth devices. This fixes it for most people.

Bluetooth mice need a strong signal to work smoothly. When your mouse stutters, the Bluetooth signal is too weak or getting interrupted. This happens when the battery is low, your WiFi router is too close, USB 3 devices are nearby, or the pairing has become corrupted. The fixes are straightforward: charge the mouse, remove interference, or re-pair.
