Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A macOS utility that keeps a MacBook running with its lid closed, while letting you monitor and direct work from a phone browser.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-01 issue.

Field notes

CapsAwake uses the MacBook’s Caps Lock key as a physical toggle: press it, close the lid, and the machine continues running while a paired phone browser reports progress and accepts instructions. The page specifies support for macOS 12 or later on both Apple Silicon and Intel hardware, with no phone app required. It also describes safeguards that watch completed jobs, battery level, and temperature before allowing the Mac to sleep.
