Reboot your mac every day for a clean fresh start

To set up your macOS to reboot daily at around 3 a.m., you'll need to use the Terminal and create a scheduled task using the 'cron' utility. Here's a simple way to do it:

  1. Open Terminal on your Mac.

  2. Type crontab -e and press Enter. This command opens the crontab editor.

  3. In the editor, add a line like this: 0 3 * * * /sbin/shutdown -r now

    • 0 3 * * * tells it to run at 3 a.m. every day.

    • /sbin/shutdown -r now is the command to reboot.

  4. Save and exit the editor.

This should schedule your Mac to reboot daily at 3 a.m. Remember, if your Mac is asleep, it won't reboot until it's awake. Do you need help with any other details?

Still experimental - not sure if this is working.
