Timer tolerance for better battery efficiency

  • Sleep/wake awareness: Stops all timers during system sleep and display sleep, ensuring zero CPU/network activity when the user is away. On wake, timers restart and an immediate refresh fetches fresh data.
  • Timer tolerance: Both timers set a tolerance (10s for display, 10% of interval for API refresh, minimum 10s) so macOS can coalesce wake-ups with other system activity, reducing battery impact.
  • Cleanup: Removes notification observers on app termination.

v2.3.1 — Reset notifications on by default

Choose a tag to compare

@Kevinjohn Kevinjohn released this 11 Feb 15:25

Patch to v2.3.0 — reset notifications now default to on so you get notified out of the box when any usage category resets to 0%. Still toggleable via Notifications > Reset to 0% in the dropdown menu.

Changed

  • Reset notifications default to on (was off in v2.3.0)

Full Changelog: v2.3.0...v2.3.1

v2.3.0 — Reset to 0% Notification

Choose a tag to compare

@Kevinjohn Kevinjohn released this 11 Feb 15:20

What's New

Reset notifications — Get a macOS push notification the moment any usage category resets to 0%. No more guessing when your limits have refreshed.

Added

  • "Reset to 0%" notification — fires when any category (5-hour, Weekly, Sonnet, Extra) drops from >0% to 0%
  • "Notifications" submenu with toggle for reset alerts (on by default, toggleable via menu)
  • Re-enabled UserNotifications framework

How it works

The app compares each category's current percentage against the previously seen value on every refresh. When previous was >0 and current is 0, a reset occurred and a notification is sent (if enabled).

Note: See v2.3.1 for the latest patch — reset notifications now default to on.

  • Copy Usage — copy all usage stats to clipboard
