Your Mac's battery, charger, dock, and every port — checked against what they promised, explained in plain English, wrapped in light.
Live recreations of the actual interface — this is what Glow looks like.
Keep the battery between 75–80% to slow aging, pause charging when it runs hot, and override with one click when you need a full tank.
Actual wall power in, system draw, and battery flow — with animated direction, so you always know which way the energy is moving.
Chargers benchmarked against their rating, Ethernet that fell from 2.5G to 1G, displays stuck below their max refresh, USB on a slow link — flagged.
Sit down, plug in, one look: power ✓ network ✓ display ✓ USB ✓ — or exactly which cable is letting you down.
"macOS is deliberately holding your charge to slow battery aging" beats a mystery. Every state explains itself and offers the next step.
Desktop widgets in three sizes, AirPods and Magic accessory batteries, per-app energy, and a dashboard with history for everything.
Tap what you want, add your own idea, and it lands straight in my inbox.
Fully private. No account, no analytics, no network calls — ever. Everything Glow knows stays on your Mac.
Free forever. No license keys, no trials, no upsells. If Glow earns a place in your menu bar, tell a friend — that keeps it glowing. ♥
Requires an Apple Silicon Mac (M1 or later) on macOS 14+ — Intel Macs are not supported. Optional superpowers (charge limits, power modes, per-app energy) use a small helper you approve once in System Settings — removable anytime.
