FAQ
The bit you're wondering about
Is this a virus?
No. It's notarized by Apple (scanned for malware) and native Swift. It reads only your battery and system state on your Mac, runs no analytics or tracking, and asks for no special access (mic, camera, location, contacts). Its only network requests are checking for app updates and — if you've bought Plus — validating your licence. See the Privacy Policy.
How explicit is it?
Companion (free) is friendly and dramatic. Flirty (Plus) is suggestive: breathy moments, plenty of innuendo. NSFW (Plus) is explicit: heavy moans, dirty jokes. All toggleable in Settings.
Will it embarrass me in a meeting?
Only if you want it to. Set Quiet Hours, mute instantly from the menu bar, or just stay on Companion. She behaves on demand.
What's free vs Plus?
Free = Her or Him voice, American accent, Companion mode. Unlimited usage, no trial. Plus ($6.99 one-off) unlocks all 5 accents plus Flirty and NSFW modes.
Refunds?
Yes, within 14 days. No questions asked.
Which Macs?
Any Mac on macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later — Apple Silicon or Intel. It lives in your menu bar and uses almost no resources. The charge & drain reactions need a laptop; on a desktop Mac (mini, Studio, iMac, Pro) you'll still get the sleep/wake, late-night and "running hot" lines.
How do I install it?
Open the downloaded BatteryBae.dmg and drag BatteryBae onto the Applications folder. Double-click it; on first launch macOS asks if you're sure you want to open an app downloaded from the internet — click Open. After that, BatteryBae lives in your menu bar — look for the ⚡︎ icon near the clock (there's no Dock icon or window). Click it for Settings.
How do I get my licence key after buying?
It's emailed to you within a few minutes of purchase. Open BatteryBae, click the menu-bar icon → Unlock BatteryBae Plus, paste the key and hit Activate. If it doesn't arrive, check spam or email admin@whali.co.uk.
Lost your key?
Email admin@whali.co.uk from your purchase email address and we'll re-send it.
