Got Unruly Applications?
Some applications, like web browsers and older
apps, continue running tasks or animating ads even
when they're idle. That uses valuable CPU time,
which leaves you with:
-
Less CPU time for the application you're using
-
Reduced battery run-time
-
Increased heat

Tame Them with App Tamer
Find the culprits and get them under control. With App Tamer, you simply do this:
-
Launch App Tamer and click on Details
-
Sort your running applications by average CPU usage
-
Click the checkbox next to apps that need to
be tamed
- Save battery and CPU time
App Tamer will automatically pause those applications whenever you're not using them, reducing their
CPU use to zero.

Preferences give you total control

AutoStop Does All The Work
Unlike some utilities that let you manually stop
processes, App Tamer's unique "AutoStop" feature handles the details
for you. It pauses an application when you switch
away from it, then automatically restarts it when
you start using it again. Just set it and forget
it - App Tamer quietly saves battery and CPU power
while you work (or play).
|
But You're in Control
App Tamer's preferences let you tune its behavior to
your needs, whether you're frugally conserving battery
power or feeding every last CPU cycle to Starcraft.
There's even an App Tamer menu in the menubar to make
fast changes and check the status of the apps you're
running.

Road Warriors Take Note!
Recovering even a small percentage of your CPU time
can translate into significant battery savings. Stopping an application
that's consuming 5% of your CPU can translate into 20 or 30 minutes of
additional battery runtime. |
