This most recent version adds support for every current MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, and Mini. If there are persistent changes to fan behavior then you can reset the SMC on MacBook Air & MacBook Pro (2018 and newer) and reset the SMC on prior Macs to clear the system management controller. As with any settings-tinkering software, you'll want to use smcFanControl judiciously-but fortunately this application always keeps fans in automatic mode (so speed will increase along with CPU load) and never lets you set the fan speed below the Apple-recommended minimum.
SmcFanControl lets you monitor the current temperature (in Celsius or Fahrenheit), assign different minimum speeds for each fan using sliders, and even apply different settings when your power source changes (for example, going back to default fan speed when using battery power). Unfortunately, we believe it won’t be solved in the future, though there’s a GitHub issue. We confirmed the problem themselves on both iMac Pro and MacBook Pro 2018.
This free, GPL-licensed utility has a single purpose: letting you increase the minimum speed of built-in fans, so your Intel computer will run cooler. It seems that the T2 chip blocks access to SMC under Windows, while SMC is essential to get sensors values and fans info. If you've got burnt thighs from an old MacBook Pro or you notice that your computer is always overheating and crashing from using CPU-intensive apps (like playing PC games in a virtual Windows environment), you might want to check out smcFanControl. SmcFanControl lets the user set the minimum speed of the build-in fans.
