Depicus Wake On Lan
Depicus Wake On Lan is a utility for macOS that enables users to remotely wake up computers on a local network using Wake-on-LAN (WoL) technology. It's designed for IT administrators, home network enthusiasts, and users who need to remotely power on networked machines without physical access. The app sends specially crafted network packets (magic packets) to target machines, allowing you to wake sleeping or powered-off computers across your LAN. This is particularly useful for managing multiple machines, reducing energy consumption, or automating workflows in both home and office environments.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionThe search results do not provide clear information about a native Apple Silicon version or the current maintenance status of Depicus Wake On Lan. The developer's website (depicus.com) appears to still be active but does not clearly advertise Apple Silicon support. Given that the app is a fairly niche utility and the latest known version is 1.6 with no recent publicly visible updates, the app appears to be unmaintained or in long-term support with minimal changes. For users needing Wake-on-LAN functionality on Apple Silicon Macs, consider alternative solutions: (1) Use the command-line tool `wakeonlan` via Homebrew, which is free and natively supports Apple Silicon; (2) Try "iStat Menus," which includes WoL features and has Apple Silicon support; or (3) Check if your network hardware (router/NAS) includes built-in WoL capabilities. We recommend verifying directly with Depicus whether they plan to release an Apple Silicon-native update before abandoning the app.
