## Kitsmith's take

Reads live battery health for the Mac it’s running on, plus any connected iPhone or iPad, going back to 2005 — “the standard for battery reading,” per its own site, and not available through any App Store. The free version covers the core diagnostic view; coconutBattery Plus is a one-time purchase (not a subscription) for $12.95 (current-version only) or $17.95 lifetime, adding a Lifetime Analyzer (temperature, voltage, and charge-rate history), Wi-Fi device checking without a USB cable, menu bar detail views for connected iOS devices, custom print templates, and low-battery notifications. A 10-launch free trial of Plus mode is built into every copy.
