Modern MacBooks feature exceptional battery life, but like most batteries, they will degrade over time. Around a year after you buy a MacBook, its battery begins to show some performance issues, and their ability to hold a charge diminishes the longer you use them. There’s not much you can do to stop this process from happening, but there is an app that can help reduce the speed at which your MacBook’s battery degrades.
AlDente’s free tier lets you set both a lower and upper limit on how much your MacBook can charge. If you set these limits between 20 and 80%, you’ll be able to maintain your MacBook’s battery health for much longer. You can also force your MacBook to run on battery power, even when it’s connected to a charger. Whenever your MacBook hits the 80 percent charged mark, AlDente will make it switch to battery power until it reaches the lower end of the charging limit.
With Apple's Optimised Battery Charging, MacOS will try to find out your charging and working schedule and prohibits charging above 80% for a couple of hours overnight. If you have an unregular schedule, this will not work, and it will still charge up to 100%, just a little bit later. With AlDente, you take full control over your MacBooks charging behaviour.
