Battery Life Extender
Endurance Review
Extend MacBook battery life on the fly
Tweaks settings on the fly to squeeze more runtime from a flat battery.
Endurance is a reactive Mac battery-life extender that kicks in when you're already low on juice. When enabled, it automatically dims the display, hides background apps that chew CPU, and reduces animation so your MacBook squeezes more runtime from whatever charge is left. Its developer claims up to a 20% runtime gain in real-world use. It's a handy last-mile tool for long flights, outdoor work and cafe sessions without an outlet, but it doesn't help you avoid low-battery moments in the first place — it only buffers them.
What Endurance does well
- Auto-dims display, hides background apps when low
- Claims up to 20% extra runtime
- Simple menu bar toggle
- Well-established product
Where it falls short
- Reactive, not preventative
- No alerts, no charge limit, no health analytics
- No device battery tracking
- Subscription-like pricing per version

What people say about 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!
