Is your Mac slowing down? 🚀
Make your Mac breathe again. AppHalt pauses background apps, saves CPU power, and gives you back performance. In one click.
Hey everyone! 👋
After years of dealing with slowdowns on my Mac when multitasking, I built AppHalt to help pause background apps without quitting them.
It’s simple, effective, and honestly saved me a lot of frustration.
