Beautiful Mac battery alerts, health insights & charge limit

Visit website

Juicy replaces Apple's basic battery warnings with beautiful custom alerts at any percentage, complete with screen glow and sounds you can't miss. It also packs charge limiting, per-app energy insights, iPhone and iPad battery health, temperature tracking, and a themeable menu bar icon. One lightweight native Swift app instead of stacking AlDente, coconutBattery, and AirBuddy. Pay once, own forever. Featured twice by Apple as "Apps We Love".

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 Dominik here, the indie maker of Juicy. 🤔 Why did I build Juicy? Juicy exists because my MacBook kept dying at the worst moments. macOS usually only warns you at 10% and 5%, you can't change those levels, and the alerts are so easy to ignore that I kept losing work in cafes and on planes. So I built battery alerts that are beautiful enough to notice and impossible to ignore: native-style notification pills, screen glow, custom sounds, at any percentage you want (3%, 15%, 80%, you pick). 💪 The most powerful Mac battery app Since launching v1.0, Juicy has grown into the full battery toolkit for the Mac: 🔋 Custom alerts at any level, for your Mac and every connected device (AirPods, iPhone, Magic Mouse...) 🩺 Battery health, cycle count, temperature and voltage, one glance away in the menu bar 🔌 Charge limiting with Sailing Mode to keep your battery in the healthy 50-80% zone (your MagSafe LED even turns green at the limit) 📊 Per-app energy insights, so you finally know which app to blame for the drain 📱 Plug in your iPhone or iPad and see its real battery health, no extra app needed 🎨 A compact iPhone-style menu bar icon you can theme It's a native Swift app (not Electron), most of the time uses under 0.1% CPU, and everything stays local on your Mac. No accounts, no cloud, no tracking. Apple featured it on the Mac App Store as "Apps We Love" twice already, which still feels surreal as a solo dev. You can try everything free for 3 days, no credit card. Licenses are one-time payments, no subscription, pay once & own forever 🎁 For Product Hunt: use code AJUICYLAUNCH for 20% off, this week only. I'd love to know what you think and also what should Juicy do next? I'll be here all day answering everything :) Ask me anything about the app, macOS battery quirks, or indie Mac development.

I've been using the app for a while now, and I'm very happy with it. It would be great to add widgets to the home screen. Is this planned for the future?

Replaced my usual stack of AlDente and coconutBattery with Juicy this week and the custom alerts at 50% actually feel polished instead of janky, plus the per-app energy insights showed me a Chrome tab was secretly murdering my battery.

Love that the alerts use screen glow instead of just a banner, makes the 20% warning feel intentional rather than punishing. Nice move bundling all those tools into one native Swift app instead of the usual stack of utilities.

the screen glow and sound choice on custom alerts feels really considered, like someone actually stress-tested the default 20% warning and thought "no, this needs to be harder to miss." nice craft.
