Amphetamine

Amphetamine is a versatile and lightweight utility designed to give macOS users total control over their system's power management and sleep cycles. Unlike standard system settings, this app allows you to keep your Mac awake through a variety of customizable triggers, such as specific time intervals, active applications, or connected external displays. Whether you are downloading large files, running long-running scripts, or giving a presentation, Amphetamine ensures that your workflow remains uninterrupted by preventing the screen from dimming or the system from entering sleep mode. Beyond its core functionality, the application offers advanced features like AppleScript support and the ability to maintain system wakefulness even while the laptop lid is closed. Its intuitive menu bar interface provides quick access to session management, allowing users to toggle settings on the fly without navigating complex system preferences. By offering a highly granular level of control, Amphetamine serves as an essential tool for professionals and power users who require their Mac to stay active and responsive during critical tasks.
