Is does not work for Macbook Pro M2.
I've tested in so many circumstances, but it always charges my laptop to 100%.

When I change the limiter, it does not show the limiter that I've put previously limiter on the app, the value is missing.
When I put back the limiter to 100%, I have an error message "make sure you have privilege access"
I do have root access of course and all the privilege that I need.

The charge-limiter app uses bclm command-line program which currently runs only on intel mac hardware. However, the underlying bclm command-line program may be able to be upgraded beyond version 0.40 to add support for non-intel apple-silicon macs (like M1, M2, etc), with the issue being tracked here: Implement Apple Silicon Support (there is a way!) #20 Until bclm runs on non-intel apple-silicon, the charge-limiter app will likely not work on non-intel macs. While waiting, you can limit charging on apple sliicon macs with https://github.com/davidwernhart/AlDente-Charge-Limiter/
