## About

Dotwatt is a battery manager for MacBooks with Apple silicon, with time-left estimates, per-app energy use, charge limits and power controls in the menu bar. It measures battery draw on the Mac and updates its estimate after you quit a demanding app.

Set a charge limit from 80% to 100%, switch Low or High Power, or keep the Mac awake while supported coding agents are working. Dotwatt also records sleep drain, battery health, processor load, temperature and fan speed. It requires macOS 14 or later and is offered as a one-time purchase after a 7-day free trial.
