BatFi v3.0.5 for Mac
BatFi is a native, lightweight macOS utility that limits battery charging to a level you choose—helping extend battery lifespan without micromanaging power settings every day.
Version 3.0.5 adds support for macOS 26.4 and newer.
What BatFi does
- Charging limit — set a cap (default 80%) and keep the battery below full charge while on AC power
- Charge to 100% on demand — one menu-bar command when you need maximum runtime
- Background monitoring — launches at login and reacts when charge hits your threshold
- Status bar icon — battery percentage, charging state, and optional animations
- Notifications — alerts when charging mode changes; quick access to battery details (cycles, temperature, health, time remaining)
- User control — unlike macOS Optimized Battery Charging, you pick the limit and when to top up
What’s new in v3.0.5
- macOS 26.4+ support (per official changelog)
Requirements & licensing

I think this is unique to the 3.0.5 update — upon launching it immediately asks for the license, the software doesn’t seem cracked. Any way to fix this issue?
Run the downloaded image and drag the application to the Applications folder shortcut.
Once the copy is complete, you can launch the application from Launchpad.
ai girl?
Haha, I wish I were an AI girl — then I could just chill while something else handled all the daily uploads, comments, and site tweaks for me. Unfortunately I’m very much real, and I’m here every day adding new Mac apps, answering your comments, and trying to make torrentmac better for you. Sadly that means actual work… but hey, at least you get a living admin who actually cares. 😊
