ChargeFX Gives Your Mac a Charging Personality

chargefx.app Observed source

Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A macOS menu-bar utility that shows charger speed, live charge rate, and audio cues, with optional mood packs.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-16 issue.

Field notes

The utility keeps two power measurements visible: the adapter’s rated maximum wattage and the Mac’s current draw, which can fall as the battery fills or the system throttles. Audio stays tied to the adapter rating, using Slow, Normal, Fast, and Ultra tiers rather than constantly changing with live consumption. The page says the free download supports macOS 12 Monterey or newer and both MagSafe and USB-C; Pro adds mood packs and scheduled work windows for a one-time $3.99 purchase.
