FanPilot 1.0

FanPilot 1.0

Fan control and temperature monitor for Apple Silicon Macs.

Highlights

• Live temperatures in the menu bar and every sensor of your Mac, grouped by area
• Fan modes: System, Manual (RPM or %), Max, Auto Boost rules, and a temperature curve
• Auto Boost rules per power source (battery / adapter) with smooth ramps
• Safety first: speeds clamped to your fans' real limits, fans handed back to macOS on quit, crash
  or sleep, and a 95 °C failsafe that forces full speed
• Notifications, CSV logging, launch at login, fanpilotctl command-line tool
