Keyboard and mouse

Dear ladies and gentlemen,

I have one question concerning Magic Keyboard and Mouse for IMac M1 2021.

Is it necessary to switch off both the mouse and the keyboard when you switch off your computer?

There are small switches on the keyboard and mouse, but I am afraid that everyday use of them will simply lead to its breakage?

Thank you!!!

I have been turning off my mouse and wireless keyboard at night when I shut down for several years now with no problem. It just saves having to recharge the two devices more frequently.


However, you can use the rechargeable keyboard while it's charging but not the mouse.


Just some food for thought.
