Where Does Lunar Store Display Presets?
Lunar keeps display presets and schedules in Application Support, with brightness keys in the preferences plist.
Last updated
Lunar splits presets from toggles. Display presets, schedules, and per monitor curves live in Application Support under its own folder. Hotkeys and launch behavior duplicate into the preferences plist.
Confirm the exact folder on your install, since major versions reorganize it. Screen recording permission gates the actual dimming, so refresh it after every migration or major update. Presets without permission load silently and change nothing.
Where Lunar stores this, by platform
~/Library/Application Support/Lunar
Presets and schedules in the support folder. Copy it with the app closed. Confirm the folder name on your version before scripting backups.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Lunar settings to a new Mac?
Copy the Lunar folder to the same Application Support path with the app closed. Presets and schedules travel together. Re grant screen recording permission on the new Mac before launching.
Lunar stopped controlling brightness after an update. Why?
Open System Settings, Privacy and Security, Screen Recording, and re enable Lunar. Permission binds per install, so migrated presets load but do nothing until the toggle refreshes.
