We've all been caught without a power cord and been forced to watch our Mac's battery get dangerously low.

But an app called Endurance claims to extended your Mac's battery life by at least 20% when enabled. It works by monitoring battery-intensive parts of your Mac, like screen brightness, Adobe Flash, and running performance-heavy apps.

This is what you first see when you open Endurance.

The app will start working by default when your Mac's battery dips below 70%.

But you can adjust it to start working only when your battery gets as low as 15%.

When enabled, you'll see the tasks the app is managing with little checkmarks.

Want to try?

Endurance comes with a free 7-day trial, and if you want to keep using it after that's over, it'll cost you $12.99. You can download it from the developer's website.
