James. You can easily turn it off thru menu bar icon when not using it.

In our tests it results on ~10-20% additional drain. We hope to make utility high enough so that it doesn't matter.



Really curious: what problem are you solving besides "pausing music when you have many windows open" that would justify saying it is high utility?

Pausing music is a moot point if you use a Mac and iTunes. Speech recognition built into the os can do this.

"can't reach" is such a first world problem that building an application for it is laughable.

Am I missing something?


@alttab - thanks for your view point. We meant to say that we will add enough utility overtime. Interestingly enough 80% of our downloads are also non-us so may be it is a wide spread problem. Thx!


What is your revenue model?

I'm not the best guy to value your services as I use bash, vi, and Grep for everything. I understand the love for technology but the amount of time spent building this app seems a little silly considering it is as far from solving world hunger as one could get.


If your laptop is far away enough to need this app, I think it's a reasonable assumption that it's plugged in (or else you could just bring it next to you and use the media buttons or space bar to pause the music).


Thank you - completely agreed!
