smcFanControl

Thanks so much for the software and the sharing guys! Loving it

Works great on my M1 13" Macbook Pro. I use this app to force the fans to turn on when the laptop gets warm. Without it, the OS lets the laptop get very warm and doesn't kick on the fans.

This was the first fan control app I ran on my 2009 imacs. I only found it useful for monitoring the temperature, as it seemed to have many glitches when actually trying to control fan speed. Usually it did not work at all.

I really liked this app on my 2013 and 2017 MacBook Airs, but it's not working at all on my 2020 MacBook Air M1.

I love this app. Bypassed me from many troubles

Works great. Worked great on my Macbook early-2008, worked great with all OSX updates until my computer could not be updated anymore so I bought a mid-2015, updated to Big Sut and SMC Fan Control keeps working great.

It is a good application, with an easy and intuitive interface to use, but it has several flaws. First: The program when I leave the mac to sleep or turn it off stops working and I have to manually reopen it. Second: I have seen that the program does not show you the real speed of your fans, it limits the speed but other programs do not like Macs Fan Control. That is all.

excellent, simply shows rpms and system temp in menu bar, highly recommended.

Well, I put a new HDD in a 2011 iMac, then I realized the lack of a sensor/signal from the drive made the fans blast on max constantly. So, this software fixed it, for free! And yea, it asks for the user password constantly. But, I am thinking once it auto launches at bootup, I should not really have to touch it again.

I used this ten years ago and it worked great. I used it today in 2020 and it's still a great app. Thanks!!

No compromise in giving 5 rate, Where as it doesn't work as expected in Catalina. Can you kindly provide the any script to run or any alternative for this issue to fix. Could help a lot. Tx

Great app for Imac stays cool

This stupid software keeps asking me to type in my password all the time! Really annoying!

its year 2020 and it still works great on my iMac. Cools it down pretty fast.

Saved my overheating MacBook Air - Thanks!

Hello

Simply brilliant ! Brought a new life to a VERY expensive, top-of-the-line mid-2012 MacBook Pro which should had been part of a clearly articulated recall for flawed and faulty motherboard, using a cheap, underpowered PCI chip. I still encounter ocassional booting issues, but the laptop is back in action.

I installed this current version on my old Macbook Pro 2009 El Capitan and I just can't change the cooler temperature at all, and it only stays at 4000rpm. Lucky I have a saved old version that I was able to reinstall. I have been using this program for a few good years and I hope you will correct this problem.

what happens when we quit the app? will our Mac go back to the normal software which control the fan or this is the only software which control our fans. what if I quit thus app and use my Mac.is thus gonna effeec.

Worked well on my 2015 Macbook Pro. My computer started getting really hot lately due to a number of programs I am running for a school project. I cleaned the fans but nothing worked to keep the temp down. I can control each fan separately and there is an ability to change the modes for higher fan speed for when I am running on batter, on log-in and when charging. Simple and well done.
