New in 0.2.2Plug in. Watch it celebrate.<br>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.

The gap<br>macOS tells you almost nothing.<br>Your Mac knows everything about its battery. It just doesn’t show you. We do.

What macOS shows you<br>—A battery icon — and that’s about it<br>—A vague “Service Recommended”, eventually<br>—No cycle count, no real health %<br>—No live wattage, no temperature<br>—No alert when to unplug, or what’s draining it

With Mac 4 Breakfast<br>✓Exact health %, cycle count & capacity<br>✓A true time-remaining estimate, live<br>✓Real-time watts, voltage & temperature<br>✓Smart Alerts + what’s using significant energy<br>✓Every Apple device’s battery, in one place

The all-in-one<br>The manager of every battery manager.<br>Four apps' worth of power — health, charging, devices, and insights — in one menu-bar icon.

Mac 4 Breakfast

See everythingYour battery, beautifully understood<br>Health, cycles, capacity, temperature and live charging voltage — plus a true time-remaining estimate Apple removed years ago. One glance tells you everything.

Power & Smart AlertsSee what’s draining it — and know when to act<br>Live wattage the moment you plug in, the exact apps using significant energy right now, and Smart Alerts that drop from the notch — an unplug reminder at your target, predictive low-battery, and overheating warnings that name the cause.

Your menu bar, your wayThe most customizable menu bar, period<br>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.

Insights nobody else hasIt doesn’t just show — it advises<br>A shareable Battery Report Card, a health forecast, a charging coach that learns your habits, a benchmark against the typical curve, and a live heat-event log.

Smart Alerts<br>Alerts that drop from the notch.<br>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<br>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<br>“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<br>Flags the moment your Mac runs hot and points straight at the app behind it.

Fully in your control<br>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<br>Get more years out of your battery.<br>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<br>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<br>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<br>Sustained heat ages a battery faster than anything else. We log every heat event so you can spot the cause.

Calibration matters<br>Occasional full cycles keep the gauge honest. The charging coach tells you when it’s actually worth doing.
