Bluetooth keyboard has typing delay or lag
Your keyboard is losing its connection or has a low battery. Charge it fully, turn it off and on again, and check the connection on your device. This fixes it for almost everyone.
Bluetooth keyboard lag happens when the wireless connection is unstable or the battery is running low. The keyboard is still connected but can't send your keystrokes fast enough. We'll charge it, reconnect it, and clear out any connection problems.

Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Not fully charging the keyboard before testing. It needs at least 2 hours of charge to send keystrokes reliably.
- Moving other Bluetooth devices away but forgetting that the keyboard itself might be near interference. Keep the keyboard within 10-15 feet of your device.
Signs you need professional help
- If your keyboard is still lagging after charging fully and forgetting and repairing it, the keyboard might have a faulty battery or Bluetooth module. Give us a call and we'll figure out if it needs replacing.
