Nice idea, battery killer

The idea is pretty nice and the app has a pleasant UI.
However, this is a battery killer.
On my MacBook Pro 16" I'm in trouble to even charge above 10% on certain times of the day.

I don't refund because I appreciate the idea behind it, but I'm going to uninstall and try again in couple of months.

Hi Valerio 👋

Thanks for the review and for sticking with the app! The app should only consume energy during the initial indexing, which usually takes a few days (and even then it should stop indexing if you're working on battery). After that it should go down to almost nothing.

In addition, in a recent version we added scheduling for indexing. That lets you determine when the app uses CPU: https://curiosity.slite.com/p/channel/DWzpcYyH6zipLb1Vus4R77/notes/c2kocKKK3ZBN8B

If you have done that and are still seeing high CPU usage, please let us know at hello@curiosity.ai so we can check what's going on.
