Hi,

I initially put this under Discussions, but figured it fits better as an Issue.

I uninstalled the free version with the intent of getting Pro, but haven't gotten to it yet. However, since uninstalling I've noticed that the lightening symbol is always on, even hours after the battery reaches 100%... now I'm a bit sketched out about downloading Pro!

• MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020)
  

• Big Sur 11.4
  

• Aldente Free version
  

• Did not use AlDente in Intel mode
  

• Did not use the uninstaller, since I had the free version so I was told to uninstall as normal with no special steps needed
  

• Already tried an SMC reset
  

Here's a screenshot of battery health management showing the lightning symbol on all night while plugged in. Any ideas for how to fix this and return the battery management back to normal?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Lbobbing,

Same answer as in your discussions post:
In my understanding, the lightning symbol just means that your MacBook is plugged in. It does not mean that it is charging necessarily.

Cheers,
Matthias
