Should my Macbook Air be connected to power constantly?

Should we use the macbook directly from the ac or use it on battery all the time.

What is better for the battery life ??

It is up to the user.

Whenever possible, keep it connected to the power.

Whenever needed use it on battery.

How battery health management helps

The battery health management feature in macOS 10.15.5 is designed to improve your battery's lifespan by reducing the rate at which it chemically ages. The feature does this by monitoring your battery's temperature history and its charging patterns.


Based on the measurements that it collects, battery health management may reduce your battery's maximum charge when in this mode. This happens as needed to ensure that your battery charges to a level that's optimized for your usage—reducing wear on the battery, and slowing its chemical aging. Battery health management also uses the measurements to calculate when your battery needs service.
