BatteryCompanion
Smart, private battery alerts
Only for Mac
$3.99
Mac
Get a quiet nudge exactly when it's time to plug in or unplug — nothing else. No tracking, no cloud, no clutter. Just the reminder you asked for.
Battery Companion is a simple, native macOS menu-bar utility that tells you exactly when to plug in and when to unplug — nothing more.
Optimal battery life is achieved when battery charge is maintained between 20% and 80% - the default values for the app.
Set a low threshold and a high threshold that match your own charging habits, and Battery Companion watches quietly in the background. When your battery crosses one of those points, you get a single native notification — with optional sound and optional spoken alerts — and then it stays quiet until you've moved back across that threshold. No repeated nagging, no dense dashboard, no numbers you didn't ask for.
Battery Companion lives in your Dock and, space permitting, your menu bar too, showing your current charge level and charging state at a glance.
Built for people who follow a deliberate charging routine — for example, keeping a battery between 20% and 80% to protect long-term battery health — and who want a reminder tool, not another system monitor.
Privacy is not an afterthought: Battery Companion has no network access, no telemetry, and no tracking of any kind. Your preferences are stored locally on your Mac and never leave it.
Battery Companion complements macOS's own battery and charging features. It does not control charging hardware, override Optimized Battery Charging, or replace Apple's own battery management — it simply tells you when it's time to act.
