Frequently Asked Questions

Does it add input lag?+
No measurable lag. BLE reports forward to USB within 1ms. The USB HID endpoint polls at 1KHz. Competitive gamers report no difference from wired peripherals.
Can I use keyboard AND mouse simultaneously?+
Yes. NexusHID appears as two separate USB composite devices — one keyboard and one mouse. Both operate independently and simultaneously. Connect up to two BLE peripherals at once.
Does it work with the Xbox on-screen keyboard?+
Absolutely. Xbox recognizes NexusHID as a standard USB HID keyboard and uses it for all text input — dashboard search, game chat, web browser, and any game that supports keyboard input.
Will it work with my specific keyboard or mouse?+
If your device uses standard BLE HID (99% of Bluetooth keyboards and mice do), yes. Devices that require proprietary 2.4GHz dongles are not supported — those connect to their own receiver, not via Bluetooth.
Does it need external power or batteries?+
No. NexusHID draws power directly from the USB port. The included 6-inch USB-C to USB-A cable is all you need. No wall adapters, no batteries, no charging.
Can I update the firmware?+
Yes. Connect NexusHID to any computer — it appears as a USB drive. Drag the latest UF2 firmware file onto it. No special software, no bootloader mode. Firmware releases posted on this website and GitHub.
What if my devices disconnect or go to sleep?+
NexusHID auto-reconnects within seconds. If a peripheral enters deep sleep, press any key or move the mouse to wake it — reconnection is fully automatic.
What's the return policy?+
Purchases through Amazon are covered by their standard 30-day return policy. If you have any issues, contact hello@nexushid.com — we respond within 24 hours.
