Questions
Is FollowNet Pulse free?
Yes. The dashboard, top processes, battery details and the core menu bar metrics are free with no time limit. Pro is optional: a yearly subscription with a 7-day free trial, or a one-time lifetime purchase.
Which Macs are supported?
Any Mac with macOS 14 Sonoma or later, on Apple silicon (M1–M4 and newer) or Intel.
Does Pulse collect my data?
No. There is no account, no analytics and no tracking. All readings stay on your Mac. The only network request is to ipinfo.io when you open the Network screen, to show your public IP and provider.
Can Pulse change fan speed?
No. Pulse only reads sensors — temperatures and fan speeds. It never writes to the hardware, so it is safe to leave running all day.
How much does it slow my Mac down?
Barely at all. Pulse is a native Swift app; by default it refreshes once per second and you can make it update less often in Settings.
How do I restore Pro on another Mac?
Sign in with the same Apple ID, open Settings → Pro and tap “Restore purchases”. A lifetime purchase works on all your Macs.
