Amphetamine - Best For Keeping Your Mac Awake
Amphetamine is a macOS utility application that helps users keep their computer awake and prevent it from entering sleep mode, screen saver mode, or display sleep. It is available for free on the Mac App Store and offers various features to customize and control the sleep behavior of your Mac.
The primary purpose of Amphetamine is to provide a way to override the default sleep settings of macOS, particularly useful in situations where you want to keep your Mac awake for a specific period of time. It can be helpful during presentations, file downloads, video playback, or any other scenario where you need to ensure that your Mac remains active and doesn't go to sleep.
Amphetamine allows you to manually activate the "Amphetamine mode" with a single click, which keeps your Mac awake indefinitely until you deactivate it. You can also set specific durations for the Amphetamine mode to automatically turn off after a certain period of time. This flexibility gives you control over how long you want to keep your Mac awake.
