Caffeine is a wonderful app that I use daily. I’m pretty shocked I have never done a review on it before now. Caffeine lives in the menu bar. The app uses a coffee cup icon that when empty, it’s off and when the cup is full, Caffeine is running. When you click on the empty coffee cup, the icon changes to a full cup of coffee and you will be then preventing your Mac from automatically going to sleep, dimming of the screen or starting the screen saver.
Why do I love Caffeine? I spend so much time on my Mac that when I get up to get some food I forget that my Mac will go to sleep or start it’s screen saver if I don’t return quick enough. With Caffeine running, I keep myself from worrying about apps quitting when my machine goes to sleep. I stare at my screen while waiting for things to render and I know it doesn’t make the process go any faster, but before caffeine, I would be constantly swiping at my Magic TrackPad to keep the Mac awake. From when I turn the Mac on in the morning till I shut it down at night, I have Caffeine running.

When I’m downloading files I know are going to take awhile, I will tell Caffeine to stay running the amount of time I might need and know the Mac will stay awake doing my tasks until the time I set runs out. Then, my Mac goes into sleep mode. This allows me to step away from the computer and know it will safely get to sleep after the tasks are finished.
