It's not up to us. Firefox devs are the ones who don't want to add the necessary functionality to their browser to allow connecting to a USB device. :) We hope to have a downloadable version ready asap, but right now it's a bit of a fight of priorities to get the V5 Wootility feature finished and polished.

r/WootingKB on Reddit: Time to enable Wootility V5; NOW STABLE!

February 26, 2025 -

That’s right, Wootility V5 is now out of beta! The focus for V5 was to create a coherent and clean experience, simplify management of your profiles and rethinking the way you navigate around Wootility for all your possible keyboard settings.

For Wootility, this is only just the beginning of this new and improved version, as as we have a lot of planned features to add in the future!

So let’s look at some of the highlights!

Enhanced Profile Management
- Everything is now bundled in one single menu
- An overview of your active- and inactive profiles
- Allow for a personal touch with banners and icons for your profiles

New control and keyboard features
- You can now drag an area to select keys
- You can now double-click to select keys with the same configuration
- Visualize arbitrary information with the Wooting 80HE’s Light Indicator
- Rapid Trigger sensitivity can now be set individually per key (not available on AVR devices due to memory/flash storage limitations)

Individual Rapid Trigger sensitivity per key

Improved device handling
- Reduced issues that could occur when using 3rd party RGB apps
- Improved device connection handling relating to firmware updates
- While updating firmware, Wootility-related notifications will no longer show.
- Devices are detected quicker

Additionally, we also shipped a lot of bug fixes and smaller quality of life updates with this release as well. For a full list of these you can read the Wootility changelog. Wootility V5 is both available on desktop and as download, you can find both here.

Let us know what you think

Want to keep talking about anything Wootility related? You can do so in our Discord server in the special Wootility channel. For your thoughts and feedback, the devs would like you to fill in this survey as this will help them tremendously with the shape of Wootility for the future. We will raffle away two Wooting 80HEs among all submissions.

Seeing all of this and thinking: “TLDR”. Of course we got you covered with a video where we take you on a tour on V5 Wootility! Don’t worry, it’s really not that scary, but Sander will hold your hand and guide you through it.

On behalf of Simon, Pola and the rest of the dev team, thank you in advance for your feedback, comments and compliments for Wootility! They can’t wait to read what you have to say.

Good update Now we need an option to set the default travel time of switches, Geon Raw HE are 3.4 mm instead of Lekkers 4mm for example

V5 has been stable in testing for me, and the new UI is nice, but it’s so disappointing to see V5 come out of beta still without application recognition for profiles (auto swapping). I’ve had my keyboard since 2021 now and was told it was “in the works” around 2022. I would argue it’s a basic feature for keyboard software to have, and to take your software out of beta for a fifth version without basic functionality is starting to get frustrating.

r/WootingKB on Reddit: Not sure if this has been asked, but the new wootility interface is confusing me.

November 5, 2024 -

I have these set as my actuation points. However, all of them actuate at 0.4mm (based on the visual feedback) rather than what I set each key individually as.

I'm not a fan of this new interface. It feels too clunky/complicated, unlike the old one which was pretty straightforward. Maybe it just takes getting used to, but is there a way for us to revert to the old one?

Thanks to anyone who can help!

Hey, the Visual Feedback is a bit flawed right now, it only uses the current actuation point that is being presented to visualise where the actuation would be. It does not accurately reflect the exact actuation behaviour of the key you're pressing. We're going to change this for now to just show how far you've pressed the key. We'll restore the actuation visualisation once we can make sure it shows accurately and isn't confusing like this. Otherwise, I hope you will start liking Wootility v5, as we've worked hard to try and make it more straightforward and simple to use, so I hope it's just a matter of getting familiar with it for you. However, we're happy to hear any additional points of feedback you have that is making it harder for you than it needs to be!
