What's new


v2.3 [Feb 9, 2017]
- If Spotify is playing music in the background, App Tamer will no longer stop or slow it down.
- Corrected a logic error that prevented App Tamer from correctly slowing apps that have lots of helper processes (such as Spotlight and Google Chrome).
- When Chrome and Spotlight are slowed by App Tamer, their CPU usage is now more steady.
- Fixed several small memory leaks.


v2.2 [Aug 31, 2016]
- Compatible with Mac OS X 10.12 Sierra.
- Improved App Tamer's efficiency when managing lots of processes.
- Made App Tamer much more intelligent about stopping and starting helper processes such as Safari Web Content, Safari Networking, Google Chrome Helper, etc.
- Made contextual menus (when clicking on processes in App Tamer) behave consistently.
- Fixed problems with text not fitting correctly when running on French systems.



v2.0 [Jan 22, 2014]
- Fixed a problem with App Tamer sometimes failing to slow down a process even when you’ve specified a CPU limit for it.
- Added a small highlighted corner in the status indicators to show whether a running application has been configured to slow down or stop.
- Fixed a bug that could cause App Tamer to crash when it started up under certain conditions.


v1.3 [May 31, 2012]
- Added Retina display support.
- App Tamer now wakes up applications for scroll wheel and gesture scrolling even when they're in the background.
- Applications wake up when the display configuration changes so they can switch window configurations if necessary.
- Errors were fixed that caused warning messages in the Console under some circumstances.
- Fixed bugs in handling the consequences of high CPU load.
