Procedure to uninstall?

[DarkVeneno]

Hello, I want to know if to uninstall the app I need to do any extra things or just drag it into the trash and empty it.

It's just that when I close the app it still limits charging, I want it to only limit charging when the app is open. So I suspect that after uninstalling it it will still limit the charge even though it's uninstalled from the computer.

Thanks.

You also need to reboot the machine or disable background activity from within Battery Toolkit or System Settings.

Tying charge limiting to whether the app is open makes no sense, because charge limiting is a platform state (global) and whether the app is open is a user state. What happens when two users are logged in and one closes the app, while the other still has it open?

I thought about a menu option to pause the background activity, but unsure what the use-case would even be.

I understand. As for my use case, I only installed it to use my Mac in clamshell mode. When it's not in clamshell mode, I prefer for the behavior to be stock. Also with multiple users, the app could detect in some way which of them is the active user, and disable its behavior accordingly. If tying it to whether the app is open is technically unfeasible, I think your idea of adding a menu option for it is very good!

But I understand it's subjective and I may be "a minority".

No, the per-user model is inherently and “unfixably” broken. Monitoring user switching would already be super ugly, but that works only towards users with the app open - a quit app cannot register a login.

All I can offer is a menu option to pause and resume the background activity. Arguably it’s the same idea as quitting. Would that work?

Yes, It'd be perfect. Thanks for making such a great app!
