If your MacBook no longer lasts the day, it is usually background apps or a worn battery. Here is how to find out which.
Fixes to Try- Check battery health — System Settings → Battery → Battery Health. "Service Recommended" means the cells are worn.
- Find energy hogs — Activity Monitor → Energy tab; quit apps using high energy.
- Lower brightness and enable Low Power Mode.
- Turn off unnecessary background refresh and login items.
Mac batteries are rated for about 1000 cycles. If health is low, backup is under a couple of hours, or the trackpad clicks feel odd (a sign of swelling), a battery replacement restores full runtime. A specialist does it for far less than an Apple Service Center.
