Trackpad cursor lag MBA M1

Good morning,

many times during the day on my macbook air m1, my cursor starts losing a lot of FPS. The only way to stop that is to click on STOP on the settings bar and wait 2 seconds. I'm exhausted of this problem. Do you have any solution? I already re-installed the OS many times. The issue is always there

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.5

Hello damir160,


It sounds like you have already completed some really good steps in troubleshooting. If you haven't already, try testing the cursor while in safe mode. Your Mac starting up slower in safe mode is normal.


Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support

Start up your Mac with Apple silicon in safe mode
1. On your Mac, choose Apple menu  > Shut Down.
Wait for your Mac to shut down completely. A Mac is completely shut down when the screen is black and any lights (including in the Touch Bar) are off.
2. Press and hold the power button on your Mac until “Loading startup options” appears.
3. Select a volume.
4. Press and hold the Shift key, then click Continue in Safe Mode.

The computer restarts automatically. When the login window appears, you should see “Safe Boot” in the menu bar.

Starting up in safe mode will help isolate this problem between software or system. If this continues, we recommend reaching out to Apple Support by going to Get Support.



Good luck!
