TL;DR
AlDente is laser-focused on one thing: keeping charge below a threshold. Juicy includes charge limiting as a core feature, then adds everything else a battery-obsessed Mac user actually wants — custom low-battery alerts that glow from the notch, live health and cycle analytics, multi-device monitoring, and a menu bar icon that looks like Apple shipped it.

Why they actually love Juicy.
The battery alerts Apple should have made!
3 days in and Juicy has already saved me from my laptop dying while on a call. If that's not a win, I don't know what is!
Delightful app
Sometimes you should enjoy the little things in little... Like the beautiful notifications of this app!
This is why I like Mac OS
It can tell you that your battery is low as well as your battery health. This IS what I need for my Mac.
Purchased the app recently, GOOD STUFF to buy
The app has a very clean and well-thought-out design, and it works flawlessly. Compared to other Mac battery apps, it performs exceptionally well. I'm really impressed and looking forward to seeing even more functional and beautiful design updates in the future. I'm definitely sticking with it!
Great
Great app! Love it! Much better than the apple interface and love the screen glow effects.
Great app
I really like this app a lot. Cool remaindings, cool effects, so smooth and great colors. Love this.
Beautiful app, really useful
I swaped my standard Mac battery icon immediately with Juicy's one after installing the app. Love the craft and usefulness of the app
Awesome MUST have
Being able to set a full screen alert at 2% and 1% charge left has saved me from suddenly getting kicked out of Zooms and other calls before it's too late.
Great product!
It's such a simple and cool product! Already saved me a couple of times from getting and empty laptop!

Juicy vs AirBuddy
Device Battery Alerts
AirBuddy shows device batteries beautifully. Juicy does that, plus Mac battery alerts, health analytics, and charging limits — one menu bar icon instead of four apps.
Juicy vs coconutBattery
Battery Health
Coconut Battery shows you numbers in a window. Juicy shows you the same numbers — plus graphs, alerts, devices and charge limiting — from the menu bar, every second of the day.
Juicy vs iStat Menus
System Monitoring
iStat Menus is a kitchen-sink system monitor. Juicy is a focused battery app — same menu bar real estate, fully designed around the one thing people actually look at.
Juicy vs BatFi
Charge Limiting
BatFi limits charging. Juicy does that plus alerts, health, and device batteries — in one native app.
Juicy vs Endurance
Battery Life Extender
Endurance extends battery on the fly. Juicy prevents you from ending up there in the first place — with alerts, a charge limit, and live health.
Juicy vs ToothFairy
Bluetooth Utility
ToothFairy is a connect/disconnect button. Juicy shows you which device is connected and how much battery it has left — beautifully.
