Creator Micro V2 repeatedly fails to reconnect over Bluetooth after sleep

Bugs

I’m using a Creator Micro V2 with Work Louder Input 18.0 and firmware 0.6.1 on a Mac running macOS Golden Gate 27.

Bluetooth has been extremely unreliable. When the Creator Micro goes to sleep, it often fails to reconnect properly after waking. Restoring the connection can take 15–20 minutes of restarting the device, forgetting it in macOS, and pairing it again.


Each successful re-pairing also appears as another Bluetooth device. I now have five or six duplicate Creator Micro entries. Even after turning the device off and choosing “Forget This Device,” the old entries continue to appear under Nearby Devices.

I originally assumed this was caused by the beta software or firmware, but the problem remains after moving to the full Input 18.0 release with firmware 0.6.1.


Expected behavior: The Creator Micro should reliably reconnect to the same Bluetooth pairing after waking from sleep.


Actual behavior: It frequently fails to reconnect, requires extensive troubleshooting and re-pairing, and creates duplicate Bluetooth entries.


At this point, the Bluetooth experience is frustrating enough that the device doesn’t feel dependable for daily use.

    I, too, am having issues with the Creator Micro V2 bluetooth connection. Random disconnects happen all the time. Super slow and laggy very often. I hope this is just a firmware issue. I see that this is a widespread issue.

    Hi @tfraley , thanks for reporting this.

    We’re releasing firmware version 0.6.2 by the end of today, which should address the Bluetooth reconnection issue.

    Could you confirm whether the Input app still works normally after the Mac wakes from sleep, and whether the problem is limited to the Bluetooth reconnection?

    Once 0.6.2 is available, please try it and let us know whether the issue is resolved.
