Theine 3.6
Prevent your Mac from falling asleep, dimming your screen or starting the screensaver. Theine keeps macOS awake just like caffeine does with you.
It just works
Caffeinate your Mac through a simple click on its menubar icon or even better: define a custom global hot key. It is fast, lightweight and optimized for macOS 10.15 Catalina.
Always on time
The timer function allows you to control exactly how long Theine should be activated. You can also set a custom default duration or choose to caffeinate your Mac infinitely.
Less but better
Theine looks brilliant in light and dark mode. It is designed for modern retina displays and perfectly fits to macOS accent colors. But our favourite feature is: It is as little design as possible.

Frequently asked questions
How do I install the app?
Mount the image, drag the app into the "Applications" folder and launch it. If the system blocks the launch, allow it in "System Settings → Privacy & Security".
The app is damaged or won't launch
Reinstalling from a fresh image usually helps. Make sure your macOS version matches the one listed in the compatibility specs.
How do I update?
Download the new version from the site and install it over the current one — your settings will be preserved.
The download link doesn't work
Try a mirror or a download manager. For large files the browser often drops the connection.
How do I completely remove the app?
Use an uninstaller utility — it cleans up the service files that remain after moving the app to the trash.
