Read battery and disk status

The bottom section of Machine has power, disks, and Sense icons. Hover over an icon to see its detailed status.

Power status:

  • While plugged in, it may say “Plugged in — working without pauses”.
  • On battery, it may say “On battery %n — saving power”.
  • When the battery drops below 20%, relevant jobs are put on hold; you’ll see “Battery %n — resumes when plugged in”. This threshold is fixed and can’t be changed in settings.

Disk status:
