Rapport de diagnostic
alex -
Hi, I have a MacBook Pro 2019. In "high battery consumption," I sometimes see "diagnostic reporter" appearing a few times a day for a short duration and then it disappears by itself. I have of course looked for a solution; it mentions where to go, but then it only indicates: check the applications that consume energy... but it doesn't say anything else.
Here is the list of applications that are open:
Safari (with 4 tabs), 3 TextEdit documents... nothing else.
Is there a solution?
Thank you.

Hello,
Indeed, on portable Macs, you can quickly see which applications are consuming the most: just go to the menu bar at the top of the screen and click on the "Battery" icon to display the list of applications with "High energy consumption."
The only purpose of this menu is the following case: to discover in this list an unused application to quit it and thus preserve the Mac's battery life.
In your case, you found that Safari and TextEdit are listed as consuming battery.
If you're browsing the internet, it's normal for the Safari application to consume battery, so there's no need to close it!
But if you're no longer using the TextEdit application, it's better to quit it and relaunch it when you need it again!
This list of applications considered to be major battery consumers not only helps save battery but also allows the Mac to run more smoothly: by being aware of the applications open at the same time, you can close those that are no longer needed, thus freeing up processor and memory capacity to better run the applications that are actually in use.Note that if your Mac is plugged into the power supply, then all these concerns and issues about saving battery do not arise or matter anymore.
