Hey everyone,

I’ve been a proud Wooting keyboard user for a while now. Love the analog technology, the build, the feel… but here’s the cold hard truth:

Wooting has zero native macro support. None. Zero. Zip.

They released this so-called “Wootomation” software a while ago, which everyone hoped would be the native macro solution. But spoiler alert: it’s a total disaster. The software is utterly unfinished, barely functional, and clearly abandoned by the devs. You can’t even seriously rely on it for basic, much less advanced macro functions that any other decent peripheral software handles effortlessly.

Every few weeks, there’s a frustrated post on Discord or Reddit: “How do I just make this button mute my mic?” Or, “Why can’t I automate basic stuff for work with my expensive keyboard?”

Wooting’s answer is… silence. Or, “Use Wootomation!” (or 3rd party software) - but we all know it’s broken and forgotten.

I’m not asking for hacks or game cheats, just the same productivity tools EVERY other brand offers. In 2025, you shouldn’t need to use sketchy third-party macro programs (risking bans!) just to copy and paste with style.

Now, you might say, “Just use third-party programs like Key Manager, BotMek, or AutoHotkey.” The reality? Those programs are either outdated, complicated to set up, or simply don’t work properly with many games and apps-likely because anti-cheat systems see them as suspicious. It’s frustrating because all we want is simple, repeatable key presses for convenience and productivity, not cheating or anything shady.

Meanwhile, competitors like Corsair iCUE and Logitech G HUB offer native macro functionality that’s reliable, user-friendly, and integrated seamlessly. Wooting’s lack of a proper solution is glaring.

To the devs and decision-makers at Wooting:
We aren’t asking for miracles. Just give us a proper macro system - either build something solid into your firmware/software, or at least provide an official third-party app with rich features, an intuitive interface, and stability.

The community deserves this. We want the legendary analog input, and modern customization. Not this half-baked mess that’s basically a slap in the face to your loyal users.

If you’re tired of waiting for a real macro solution on your Wooting board, upvote this and share. Maybe if enough people demand it loud and clear, Wooting will finally wake up and give us the software we deserve.

Let’s make some noise - no more excuses.

Hello! I'm wondering what makes wooting keyboards be better than other Hall effect analog keyboards that also have rapid trigger? (specifically for me I mean the 80he but also all their keyboards in general) and what makes them be worth the price compared to other cheaper ones?

I'm thinking of getting an 80he but just wanna make sure :)

I have recently heard about the Wooting keyboards and was thinking of getting one. But I had some questions about the software used to customize it.

The first and main question about if it is able to switch profiles based on the current application. That way I could have a general default profile for everyday tasks. But then if I launched a certain game it would auto switch to that profile without me having to manually change it.

The second question I had is of much less importance. But I was wondering about the analog keys and how they work. I heard you can set them to do different things based on how hard they are pressed in. Is this similar to how the steam controller worked?

As in could I map 2 different inputs onto the same key. And then be able to use both by doing a short press into a full press? So that both short and full press functions are active at the same time.

If so would this always do both input when pressed? Or if I just fully press it in straight away does it skip the short press input?

EDIT: Meant to put "keyboards" not just "keyboard".

Hi, I have a minor suggestion for the web software. I saw it on Logitech keyboard: a shortcut to switch between audio output. For example between speakers and headphones. That would be awesome

I'm a software engineer. 40 hours a week, with a significant amount of typing.

I've been using a Keychron TKL with Gateron Browns for a number of years. Prior to that was an IBM Model M, an Apple Extended Keyboard II (whose Alps switches I love - more than the buckling springs of the Model M) and a random unsatisfying one with Cherry Blues, which colleagues hated.

I was looking for a replacement full-size keyboard and was intrigued about Hall Effect switches. Chyrosran22's review of the Wooting Two HE was glowing. Despite 99% of all discussions about Hall Effect saying that they're for gaming, and that the keyboard is exclusively pitched for gaming, I impulsively bought one last night. It should be arriving next week.

And now, with many things impulsive, I'm suffering buyer's remorse about the linear switches.

Colleagues say they hate them for typing. Strong opinions on Reddit trash them for typing. Some people say they're great. Many say that it's a matter of personal preference.

I am a fast typist, averaging around 100 WPM, but want to be faster. I also worry about RSI - which I appear to have developing in one of my hands - and I absolutely depend on my hands for my career, so I am interested in whether I can adopt a lighter touch with linears and custom actuation.

Are there any full-time software developers here, or those with a heavy typing component to their day job, who can provide reassurance or opinions?
