Runspur Help & Support
Runspur plans and protects downloads, builds, exports, and other long-running work from idle sleep interruptions.

Quick start
- Launch Runspur and click the orbital icon in the menu bar.
- Choose “Protect a Long Task,” then enter the task type, optional name, and expected duration.
- Start now or schedule a future protection window. You may require external power.
- For an immediate task, optionally select a running app. Runspur ends protection and records the reason when that app quits.
- Review the local task history for start time and the actual ending reason.
Frequently asked questions
Does a schedule wake a sleeping computer?
No. It starts while the device is awake during the planned window. If the device wakes later within a finite window, only the remaining time is protected.
How does “stop when a linked app quits” work?
After you select a running app, Runspur observes its termination locally. Protection ends when the final matching app instance quits. Linked-app details are never uploaded.
Does Runspur block intentional screen locking?
No. Runspur respects intentional screen locking and display sleep.
How does low-battery protection work?
When unplugged below 20%, Runspur stops the active sleep-prevention session.
Troubleshooting
- Missing icon: check hidden menu bar items or relaunch Runspur.
- Schedule did not start: confirm the device was awake during the window and check any external-power requirement.
- Linked app is missing: launch it first, then reopen the task setup window.
- Launch at login fails: check System Settings → General → Login Items & Extensions.
