What you get
You can keep wireless devices charged, connected, and ready to use.
You can see how much charge your wireless peripherals have left without checking each device separately. Open AirBuddy from your menu bar to view connected devices and their battery levels. You can also check peripherals connected to nearby Macs running AirBuddy.
You get alerts when batteries run low and when charging finishes, with thresholds you choose and settings that sync across your Macs. For everyday connection changes, you can use custom keyboard shortcuts to connect or disconnect devices, check their status, or switch listening modes. You can also build connection and battery checks into workflows in Apple’s Shortcuts app.
If you work across multiple Macs, you can hand off your Magic Mouse, Magic Keyboard, or Magic Trackpad with a click, provided the other Mac also runs AirBuddy.
