Built to be trustworthy

Native, private, and honest about what macOS allows.

No account. No analytics.

Preferences stay on your Mac. There is no profile, cloud sync, or behavioral tracking.

Native power assertions

KeepMeAwake asks macOS to prevent idle sleep and can still let the display sleep when you choose.

Closed-lid limits respected

It does not bypass macOS thermal and closed-display safeguards or install a privileged kernel extension.
