Plugged in, your Mac charges up to your limit. And stops there.

Questions we get a lot.

What do I get for free?

The whole charge limiter, no account and no expiry date. Pro is what comes after: you stop thinking about it, and you see what your battery gains.

Yearly or lifetime?

They unlock exactly the same Pro. Yearly stops whenever you like. Lifetime pays for itself in under three years.

Does it work on Intel Macs?

No. Apple Silicon only, M1 and newer. We’d rather say no than claim support we can’t stand behind.

What if I quit Cooked?

Your limit keeps holding: a small background service does the work, not the app. Uninstall Cooked and normal charging comes straight back. If the service ever stops, your limit is lifted, not frozen.

Set your limit once. That’s the whole job.
