NEW: Stay Awake mode keeps your Mac from sleeping during downloads, presentations, and more. Plus a cleaner menu, better stability, and modernized internals throughout. Set Sleep Pro is a lightweight menu bar app that puts your Mac to sleep, or keeps it awake on a schedule. Pick a preset or set a custom timer, and your computer handles the rest. Whether you fall asleep watching videos, need your Mac awake for a long download, want to limit screen time for your kids, or just want to save energy - Set Sleep Pro makes it effortless. SLEEP & STAY AWAKE MODES Toggle between two modes with a single tap. Sleep mode puts your Mac to sleep when the timer ends. Stay Awake mode prevents your Mac from sleeping for the duration. This feature is great for presentations, downloads, video calls, and long-running tasks. Uses macOS native caffeinate under the hood for reliable, battery-friendly wake locks. SIMPLE TIMER SETUP Choose from 7 preset durations (1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, or 60 minutes) or set a custom timer with hours and minutes. One click to start. Works the same in both sleep and awake modes. LIVES IN YOUR MENU BAR Set Sleep Pro stays out of your way. A small icon in your menu bar shows the remaining time. Customize the display to show icon + time, time only, or icon only. The menu dynamically reflects which mode is active. SMART NOTIFICATIONS Get alerted before your timer ends - 10, 20, or 30 seconds in advance. Snooze directly from the notification with options ranging from 1 minute to 24 hours. Cancel the timer from the notification too. Notifications adapt to the active mode. OPTIONAL AUDIO CUES Enable sound alerts so you hear when the countdown notification fires. Great for when you're across the room. PAUSE & RESUME Need more time? Pause the timer from the menu bar and resume whenever you're ready. No need to start over. In awake mode, the wake lock pauses and resumes with the timer. LAUNCH ON STARTUP Set it once and forget it. Enable launch on startup so the app is always ready when you need it. DARK MODE SUPPORT Automatically adapts to your Mac's system appearance (light or dark). FUN PERSONALITY While your timer runs, your computer shares playful messages. Sleep mode gets dreamy phrases about needing rest. Awake mode gets energetic quips about staying up. A small touch that makes the experience feel alive. STARRY SKY ANIMATION In sleep mode, watch a night sky gradually fill your timer display as bedtime approaches. Keep an eye out — there's a rare chance of spotting a shooting star. PRIVACY FIRST Set Sleep Pro collects zero personal data. No accounts, no tracking, no analytics. Your schedule is your business.
