Battery Buddy

In plain words

Battery Buddy is a menu bar application for Mac that displays battery status with a cute design as an alternative to the standard battery indicator. It serves Mac users who want a more visually appealing way to monitor their device's battery level. The application functions as a straightforward replacement for the default battery indicator, offering the same core functionality with a distinctive aesthetic appeal for those seeking personalization in their menu bar.

I’ve only tried this on my MacBook Pro, so I don’t actually know what’ll happen if you run this on a Mac without a battery. Maybe it’ll do something cool. Or maybe it’ll justfrom batterybuddy.app

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client.
