Frequently asked

Quick answers to the most common questions.

How do I put my Mac to sleep right now?

Click the Lunis moon in your menu bar and choose Sleep Now. Your Mac goes to sleep immediately — the same as closing the lid.

How do the countdown timers work?

Pick a preset — 5, 15, 30 minutes, 1 or 2 hours — or choose Custom Time and type any number of minutes. Lunis shows a live countdown in the menu bar and sleeps your Mac when it reaches zero.

What does Bedtime Dimming do?

Lunis can gently dim the screen as the timer runs down, so the room softens as bedtime approaches. It's a calm visual cue — and the brightness lifts again the moment you move the mouse or press a key.

What is 'Reset Timer on Activity'?

With this on, Lunis pushes the sleep time back out whenever you're still using the Mac, so it only sleeps after you've genuinely stopped — perfect for drifting off to a movie.

Is Lunis free?

Yes. Sleep Now, every countdown preset, custom times, and bedtime dimming are free. A nightly sleep schedule and other extras come with a one-time Lunis Pro purchase — no subscription.

Does Lunis collect any of my data?

No. There's no account, no tracking, and no dock icon. Lunis does one thing and never collects your data.

My Mac didn't sleep — what now?

Lunis sleeps your Mac through macOS, which needs a one-time Automation permission (System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security ▸ Automation). Grant it for Lunis and try again. Still stuck? Send us a message below.
