I would love it if I could trigger Amphetamine when connecting an external display. Nothing worse than giving a presentation/demonstration and my computer goes to sleep when I forget to move the mouse for too long.

Lets say I enable a indefinitely session, and then something happened and I forgot to end the session and no longer in front of the computer, so it will drain all the battery. It would be good to have a "session ender" based on the % remaining of the battery

In version 3 the option for "While an app is running" -- can Time Machine be added to the list? It does not show up when running.

Hey, I really like your amphetamine app, it's working great. But sometimes I'd like to have a special (additional) mode that keeps my mac awake but still enables the screensaver so that I just have to move the mouse to continue working.
Right now amphetamine disables the screensaver when it is running.

I'm a pretty surprised this was not already implemented.

I would like to have a function, that Amphetamine will end session when download is complete. This is kind of tricky, because every browser handles downloads a bit differently.

But one universal solution should be, to let user to select a file that he is currently downloading. Amphetamine will watch that file. If the file size stops increasing for minute or two, download has finished, and computer can sleep.

This app is really well done and deserves some sort of financial compensation.

I think this may have been introduced when the low opacity for dark mode fix was shipped.

Currently a change to the coffee cup icon style does not persist after amphetamine is quit or system is rebooted.

Other styles changes do appear to persist, so it seems to oddly only be affecting the coffee cup icon.

btw...fwiw...love your app and responsiveness to feedback.

I use this app a lot and I have most of the notifications turned. At some I open the notifications side menu and see it full of the Amphetamine notifs. It would be great to have them auto dismiss after a certain time.

instead of custom amount of time -- would like to pick the time to end a session

add feature to keep external monitors awake when lid is closed

It would be nice to add more option to be able to better schedule the awaking time, for example:
- Would be nice to be able to change schedule between working days (monday-friday) and weekends.
- Would be even cooler to add the possibility to automatic change awaking settings based on calendars appointments
- Would be enormously great to have several schedules, for example 14-18 + 21-23 awaking time on monday+tuesday + friday.

After update amphetamine 3, the alfred workflow cannot work correctly, which 'm' represent 'hour'.

Amphetamine's menu bar menu should show some sort of tick beside the time chosen for the current session! At present it's impossible to see what you've set as the current "stay-awake" time!

It looks fine on non-retina but blurry on retina display

In addition to the added AppleScript functionality that is planned for v3.1, it would be extremely useful if Amphetamine also supported toggling of the quick settings options as well.

Just a simple call command like:

toggle QS1 // (Allow Display to Sleep)
toggle QS2 // (Allow Screen Saver)

And

Queries for:

QS1 is active
QS2 is active

Would be all that's needed. Workflow managers like Alfred, Launchbar, and Keyboard Maestro would allow the user to fine tune the exact way they'd like amphetamine to function from there.

The Drive Alive feature writes a file o the monitored disk in order to keep them from spinning down. In a usage scenario in which SSD drives are involved, it would be great to increase the polling time. Currently is set to about 10 seconds but there is no way to modify it. I'm sure our SSDs will be grateful :)
Other than that, this is a great application. It helped me avoiding drive disconnections involving disks in raid configuration.
Thank you very mush for your efforts.
