Remove the app and then look for com.davidwernhart.Helper and com.davidwernhart.Helper.plist and erase both files (located under /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools and /Library/LaunchDaemons) and that's it.
And reset SMC (this is important too) and reboot.
you could run pmset -g using a terminal, and check your SMC values before erasing helper and resetting SMC.

What's about Apple Silicon Macs? As I understand it's not trivial to reset SMC on them. How can I restore all the values to the default?

Hi timension, to reset the SMC on an Apple Silicon Macbook you have to shut it down, close the lid and wait 30 seconds. Afterward, you can restart the MacBook and the SMC is reset.
