What is Capsomnia?
Capsomnia is a tiny macOS app that turns your Caps Lock key into a physical switch that keeps your MacBook awake while the lid is closed. Flip it on to keep downloads, exports or long jobs running, flip it off to let your Mac sleep normally.
Pros
- Free and open source
- No settings to dig through — one key toggles keep-awake
Cons
- Mac only
- Lid must stay closed with power connected for long jobs
