Note: The authors of AlDente recommend doing at least one complete charge cycle from 0 percent to 100 percent every two weeks to ensure that your battery remains correctly calibrated. You also have to disable Apple’s Optimized Charging feature for AlDente to work properly. You can always disable AlDente (or instruct it to top your battery up to 100 percent) if you know you’re going to need the additional juice. If you go this route your battery will remain healthier for longer, but you will be sacrificing some of its potential capacity.
