If you regularly need your Mac do not turn off until the task you are doing is done, that it turns off at a certain time or you just don't want it to turn off, it is likely that you are using the Amphetamine application, an application that has been on the market for a long time and that has become one of the must have for many users.
However, if you have ever found that some functions are missing or you do not just like them, today we are talking about Caffeinated, an application that offers us practically the same functions, with some other functions, but unlike Amphetamine, Caffeinated is paid, yes, it only costs 1 euro.
Caffeinated main features
- One-click activation (optional with left or right button)
- Controlled via the menu bar icon
- Integrated timer with option to show Notification.
- Optimized for retina displays
- Minimalist design
- It hardly affects the consumption of RAM and processor.
- Option to enable Screensaver
- Option to activate itself when connected to the charger when we use it on a MacBook.

Caffeinated is available on the Mac App Store for 1,09 euros. While it is true that Amphetamine is completely free, this application offers us some functions that we cannot find in Amphetamine. Now it all depends on what you are really looking for in an application that keeps your Mac awake at all times.
In order to make use of caffeinated, our team must be managed by OS X 10.10 or later and have a 64-bit processor. The application is completely translated into Spanish and takes up just under 10 MB.
