Plug in. Watch it celebrate.
The moment your charger connects, a vivid green comet sweeps around your screen and traces the notch — a tiny, joyful signal that power is flowing.
It lands on your notch
A white-hot comet with a real light trail sweeps the display, then settles on the notch with a glow.
Only when you plug in
It fires the instant the charger connects and runs the laps you choose: one, two or three.
Zero battery cost
A one-shot flourish, not a running animation. Switch it on or off anytime in Settings.
The gap
macOS tells you almost nothing.
Your Mac knows everything about its battery. It just doesn’t show you. We do.
What macOS shows you
- —A battery icon — and that’s about it
- —A vague “Service Recommended”, eventually
- —No cycle count, no real health %
- —No live wattage, no temperature
- —No alert when to unplug, or what’s draining it
With Mac 4 Breakfast
- ✓Exact health %, cycle count & capacity
- ✓A true time-remaining estimate, live
- ✓Real-time watts, voltage & temperature
- ✓Smart Alerts + what’s using significant energy
- ✓Every Apple device’s battery, in one place
The all-in-one
The manager of every battery manager.
Four apps' worth of power — health, charging, devices, and insights — in one menu-bar icon.
Your battery, beautifully understood
Health, cycles, capacity, temperature and live charging voltage — plus a true time-remaining estimate Apple removed years ago. One glance tells you everything.
See what’s draining it, even overnight
Live wattage the moment you plug in, Smart Alerts that drop from the notch, and a Sleep Drain Detective: open the lid in the morning and it tells you what your Mac lost overnight and exactly which app kept it awake.
Who’s been open for weeks?
Every open app with how long it has been open and the energy it has actually consumed since launch: real watt-hours from macOS’s own counter. Quit the hungry ones in one click, and stop feeling guilty about the idle ones.
The most customizable menu bar, period
Pick any two metrics — percentage, time, watts, temperature, health — or a Smart adaptive mode that shows the right thing at the right moment. °C or °F, gauge or glyph.
It doesn’t just show — it advises
A shareable Battery Report Card (PNG, PDF, CSV or JSON), a health forecast, a charging coach that learns your habits, a benchmark against the typical curve, plus live heat-event and sleep-drain logs.
Smart Alerts
Alerts that drop from the notch.
Not another notification lost in the corner. A beautiful card springs down from your MacBook’s notch — and it’s actually smart: it knows your charge target, predicts when you’ll run out, and names the app cooking your Mac.
Unplug reminder
Hit your charge target while plugged in and a card drops to nudge you to unplug — keeping the battery in its healthy zone.
Predictive low-battery
“About 14 minutes left” — with the heaviest app named, so you can wrap up or plug in before it’s too late.
Overheating, with the cause
Flags the moment your Mac runs hot and points straight at the app behind it.
Fully in your control
Toggle each alert, set your charge target, low-battery and overheating thresholds, and fire a test alert any time — all from the menu bar.
Battery 101
Get more years out of your battery.
A little knowledge goes a long way. Here’s what actually wears a battery down — and how Mac 4 Breakfast helps with each.
Cycles are finite
Your battery is rated for ~1,000 charge cycles before it noticeably wears. We count every one and forecast what’s ahead.
The 80% rule
Sitting at 100% all day stresses the cells. A Smart Alert pings you to unplug at your target, so it stays in the healthy zone.
Heat is the killer
Sustained heat ages a battery faster than anything else. We log every heat event so you can spot the cause.
Calibration matters
Occasional full cycles keep the gauge honest. The charging coach tells you when it’s actually worth doing.
