Since most of our editorial team works with products from Applu, our equipment also includes an apple mouse Magic Mouse. It is very good in many ways, Applu, however, in our opinion, it was not possible to solve its discharge, or rather the notification about it, in an ideal way. The mouse does have a notification, but it appears about an hour before the mouse discharges, which is relatively late in our opinion. So we decided to look for a possible solution that would allow us to customize the notification to our liking, and fortunately we soon found it. Let's introduce it in the following lines.

As Apple he did not give the option to choose a notification, we have to resort to a third-party program. In order to be able to set any notification before discharge, it is necessary to download the program Mountain bike (BetterTouchTool) from this link. The program is available in a trial version for 45 days, once the 45 days are up, you will have to purchase it for $6.5. After downloading the program, of course, classically we will install. After starting it is necessary confirm several windows and also allow Mountain bike access to computer control. In this case, the application will directly guide you to the system preferences, where all that's left is then authorize a check the box at BetterTouchTool.
As soon as we click through the opening windows of BTT, v upper left part of the window, we click on the button Basic Settings. Here we check the option Launch BetterTouchTool on startup, which will ensure that BTT starts automatically every time the Mac starts up. After that we will focus again on upper left part of the window and we switch to advanced Settings. Then in the upper right corner we click on the item Mouse. At the bottom of the window is an option Warn if battery level is better than, Which we will check. Then you use marbles next to the option we will set percent according to when we want to receive battery status warning in Magic Mouse. Personally, I choose a value of 25%, which is also set in the default settings.

As you may have noticed after the first launch, the BetterTouchTool application is definitely not just used to notify you when the battery in your mouse is low. It is a great program that allows you to customize the settings of your Trackpadu, Magic Mouse, Siri, keyboard, etc. But what has worked best for us so far is the modified notification about a low battery on the mouse, which can make work much more comfortable.
