Mac
Keep your Mac awake with one click. No bloat, no subscriptions. Just a lightweight menu bar toggle with two sleep prevention modes using native macOS power assertions.
Vigil: Stay Awake is a lightweight menu bar utility that keeps your Mac awake. No bloat, no subscriptions -- just a simple toggle.
Two sleep prevention modes let you choose exactly what stays awake:
- Display & System: keeps your screen and Mac fully awake
- System Only: lets your display sleep while keeping background tasks running
Vigil lives entirely in the menu bar -- no Dock icon, no clutter. It uses the same native macOS power assertions that the operating system itself trusts, so it's reliable and resource-efficient.
Features:
- One-click toggle to prevent idle sleep
- Two prevention modes for different needs
- Launch at Login support
- Remembers your last state across restarts
- Zero network activity and zero data collection.
