MacBook is famous not only for its excellent design, but also for its decent battery life. Apple managed to achieve a good level of autonomy through software optimization. If you are still faced with the problem of increased battery consumption of the MacBook, there are some simple tips.

Decrease screen brightness.

Invert colors.

Initially, color inversion was developed for people with disabilities, but it also saves the battery life of the MacBook, displaying energy-efficient black pixels instead of bright white. You can check the option in the "Universal access" section.

Other tips for improving autonomy.

MacOS usually notifies the user if an application consumes too much energy. Just click on the battery icon in the top menu and see which programs consume a lot of energy.

You can see a detailed report on battery performance in the System Monitoring. To do this, run the "System Monitoring" program and go to the "Energy" tab. Here, pay attention to the sections Energy and Medium. Energy impact.
