Trackpad Battery Minder

We love using Apple’s Magic Trackpad and use it all day every day.

We wanted a better way to check the battery level of our Magic Trackpad. We developed the Magic Trackpad Battery Minder to show the Magic Trackpad battery level at-a-glance.

No-clicking required! The Magic Trackpad charge status appears as a colored icon in the MacOS menu bar. Clicking on the Magic Trackpad Battery Minder icon in the MacOS menu bar reveals additional details and controls.

Our Trackpad Battery Minder provides you with:

  • At a glance battery status using a green, yellow, or red charge state indicator displayed in the MacOs menu bar.
  • Detailed charge percentage - available by clicking on the colored Magic Trackpad icon in the MacOS menu bar.
  • User selectable autostart - start the Magic Trackpad Battery Minder automatically when you log in to your Mac. It defaults to ‘Autostart on login’ - you can change this by selecting the ‘Enable Auto-Start’ toggle in the menu to disable or re-enable autostart.
  • Quit the application at any time.

Compatibility:

  • Apple Magic Trackpad (second generation)
  • MacOS 14.0+
