My Mouse seems to need charging every day . Is this normal, and there seems to be no way of knowing when keyboard or Mouse are fully charged.
iMac 21.5″, macOS 11.4
You can check the battery level:
However it certainly shouldn't need charging every day - weeks would be more likely. Are you sure you're charging them fully? It's a slow process and may take several hours.
If you are fully charging them and you've had them for some time the battery may be failing. I don't know whether batteries can be replaced, you'd have to ask Support.

Hello Roger,
You have enlightened me somewhat!
I have now followed that procedure, thanks.
The keyboard seem ok at 71% after only short charge so I'm happy with that.
I did leave mouse charging overnight, but still not charged and no indication using bluetooth indicator.
I will give it another go, but as you say, battery may need replacing, though I only bought this iMac new , about 6 maths ago.
Anyway many thanks for the steer.

When re-charging Keyboard or Mouse, how do you know when fully charged, as my Mouse seems to need charging every day?
