Mac

FlatWhite is a lightweight menu bar utility that prevents your Mac from sleeping — intelligently. WHY FLATWHITE Unlike traditional keep-awake apps, FlatWhite senses your laptop lid. Open the lid — stay awake automatically. Close the lid — let the system sleep normally. You will never forget to turn off keep-awake again, and your Mac will not stay running for no reason while you are away. FEATURES • One-click toggle from the menu bar • Smart lid sensing: auto-activate on open, auto-release on close • Timed sessions: 5 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, or indefinite • Keeps the display on, not just the system awake • Lightweight, always-on, no Dock clutter WHO IT IS FOR • Anyone using a MacBook in clamshell mode with an external display • Presenters, long downloads, long builds, streaming • Anyone tired of toggling keep-awake manually PRIVACY FlatWhite does not connect to the internet and does not collect any data. FLATWHITE PRO — ONE-TIME PURCHASE, LIFETIME USE • Auto Mode: stay awake when lid is closed but external display is connected • Custom durations: any minute count • Launch at login: starts FlatWhite when you log in • $2.99, family-shareable

Small refinements and polish under the hood. If FlatWhite has saved you from a forgotten keep-awake even once, a quick rating on the App Store genuinely helps.
