KeepingYouAwake

KeepingYouAwake is a handy little app for macOS that keeps your computer from going to sleep. If you've ever used Caffeine, you'll love this because it’s meant to be a replacement for that. You see, Caffeine hasn't been updated in a while and doesn't work well with Retina displays. KeepingYouAwake solves that problem!

Easy to Use

When you open KeepingYouAwake, it drops a small icon in your status bar. Just click on it, and boom! Your Mac won’t sleep for as long as you want. It’s super simple.

Set Time Limits

If you’re not ready to keep your Mac awake forever, don't worry! A quick right-click on the icon lets you choose how long you want to keep it awake: 5, 10, or even up to 5 hours. Totally flexible!

Great Design

The icons are designed to look great on Retina displays and also fit nicely with OS X Yosemite's dark mode. But just a heads up—there aren't any customization options available.

User-Friendly Interface

This app gives you a user-friendly graphic interface so you can use the caffeinate command line tool without needing to mess around with Terminal. And guess what? The caffeinate tool comes with every macOS installation!

Save Energy

A friendly reminder: don't forget to turn off KeepingYouAwake when you're done using it! This helps save energy and keeps your Mac from overheating.

Final Thoughts

If you're searching for an easy way to change energy-saving settings on your Mac quickly—and want something that looks sharp in dark mode—give KeepingYouAwake a try!
