Close the lid. It keeps running.
Prevent idle sleep and keep the display on for free, and keep downloads, renders, and long tasks running — even after you close the lid with Closed-Lid Mode.

In detail
A closer look.


How it works
Three ways to keep your Mac running.

01
Prevent idle sleep
Choose Timed or No Limit. When a timer ends, your Mac returns to normal sleep behavior on its own.

02
Keep Display On
Keep the screen lit for the current wake session. It follows the session and can be turned off independently at any time.

03
Closed-Lid Mode
Keep tasks running after you close the lid, even on battery. Battery safety exits the mode automatically at your chosen threshold.
Features
Everything, in one menu bar app.
Prevent idle sleep
Choose a timed session or No Limit. When a timer ends, your Mac returns to normal sleep behavior on its own.
Keep Display On
Keep the screen lit for the current wake session and turn it off without ending the session. The preference is remembered across sessions.
Closed-Lid Mode
Keep tasks running after you close the lid — even on battery, with a battery-safety threshold you choose. One-time setup, then it just works.
See the state at a glance
Mode badges and an optional countdown sit right beside the menu bar icon, so you always know what's active. Right-click for Settings and Help.
Scoped system authorization
Only Closed-Lid Mode needs one-time administrator authorization. You can turn it off and revoke access from Settings.
Battery safety built in
If the battery runs low while on the go, NoNap Pro steps aside and restores normal sleep. Plugged in, it never interrupts.
Don't need Closed-Lid Mode? NoNap covers the essentials — and it's free too.
