MacBat works it out with its own algorithm, from the power your Mac is actually using.
Controlled mode
Saves energy.
Keeps the speed.
Turns on Sentinel and Auto, and tells you how much power it saves.
Your Mac already manages its battery well.
But it ignores hungry background processes.
Controlled manages them for you.
Sentinel
Cools down what drains your CPU.
Runaway processes get slowed down and your battery gets more time to spare.
Use it on its own if you’d rather keep the Mac’s battery icon.
Choose which processes Sentinel manages, and pin them to the efficiency cores to save even more.
Battery data
Battery health, day by day.
For your Mac, and any iPhone or iPad you plug in.
Health, capacity and charge cycles are recorded every day, so you can see how your battery changes over time.
Export it all to CSV.
