You are probably familiar with - an application that prevents the computer from entering sleep mode. For example, I often use it when shaking something. Amphetamine is the logical continuation of Caffeine. Better, more functional, more beautiful. And besides, it's free.

Amphetamine looks like what this kind of application should look like. Once you set it up, you immediately forget about it. All that remains is to press the key combination every time you need to enable or disable the hibernation lock.

There are many settings in the application. You can set a combination of hot keys, the type of notifications, automatic activation and deactivation of the application. The most memorable thing for me is the ability to change the application icons in the status menu - each of them looks cool.

If you have used Caffeine, then you should definitely change it. Caffeine hasn't been updated since 2010 and while the app doesn't really need it, Amphetamine looks like a more logical, complete, and beautiful solution that does the same thing. The app is free, has no ads and does not force additional purchases.
