_____
Always at a glance
• The level of your Magic Trackpad next to its icon in the menu bar.
• Five ways to show it: Icon and text, Battery, Filled (the number inside the battery, or cut out of it), Text only or Icon only.
• Optionally the time left instead of the percentage, or the time until full while charging.
• A bolt while charging, and a red ! when a battery is low.
• Asleep or out of range? It stays in place, dimmed, with its last level.
The details, one click away
• Four menu layouts: Large with a big ring for each device, Compact, Rings or a List with level bars.
• The time left, learned from how you use it, in hours, days or weeks.
• When it was last fully charged.
• More than one? Each gets its own row.
Colors that tell you when to charge
• By level: 2 to 5 colors, with thresholds you drag along a bar and a live preview.
• Low only: monochrome, with a low battery in red or the color you choose.
• Every color has a light and a dark version, so it reads on any menu bar.
Alerts before it runs out
• A card at the top right of the screen when a device reaches your low battery level, and optionally when it's charged.
• Busy when it warns you? It can remind you again every few minutes until you charge it.
• In a full-screen app or game, the card waits until you leave, unless you'd rather see it at once.
• No notification permission needed.
Built for the Mac
• A native, lightweight menu bar app. No permissions needed.
• Warns you if the menu bar icon is hidden behind the notch or other icons.
• A short welcome on first launch: pick a look and set the low battery alert. Then clear Settings: General, Menu Bar, Colors and Alerts.
• VoiceOver labels, larger text, and shapes that don't rely on color alone.
• In English, Italian, German and Japanese.
