macOS Utilities
Menu bar apps that stay out of your way
Lightweight, native utilities built in Swift. No Electron, no subscriptions, no telemetry.
ActiveSpace
Shows your current Mission Control space number in the menu bar. Click to toggle between spaces, or use the popover to jump to any space.
Browser Commander
Keyboard-driven browser navigation. Go back, go forward, and open a searchable link navigator — all without touching the mouse. Works with any browser.
Browser Notes
Attach notes to any web page in any browser. Notes appear automatically when you revisit a page. No extensions, no cloud, no JavaScript injection.
CalendarUpcoming
Monitors all system calendars for upcoming events. The menu bar icon pulses blue as events approach, amber when five minutes away, and red for the duration of an event. A popover shows time remaining.
ClipMan
Clipboard history manager with a browsable popover UI. Navigate and paste from history with keyboard shortcuts. Persists across sessions.
CopyLens
Hit a hotkey, draw a rectangle anywhere on screen, get its contents on your clipboard. Text inside becomes text; if there isn’t any, you get the cropped image.
HyperCaps
Turn Caps Lock into a Hyper Key that sends all four modifiers at once. One key, unlimited conflict-free shortcuts. Shift+Caps Lock still toggles Caps Lock.
Lookout
Watches your GitHub for items needing your attention — mentions, review requests, assigned issues, and pull requests with failing CI. Quietly until something needs you, then pulses red.
MenuTidy
Collapses third-party menu bar icons behind a chevron. Visible and hidden zones that you define. Keep your menu bar organised.
QuitProtect
Prevent accidental ⌘Q quits. Double-press or hold to confirm. A single careless keypress will never close your work again.
RainbowApple
Overlays the classic 1977 six-colour rainbow Apple logo on top of your system Apple menu icon. A small touch of nostalgia.
ScreenLock
Start your screen saver with a single keypress. Default shortcut is Hyper+X — pairs perfectly with HyperCaps for instant screen locking.
ShortcutHUD
Press a global hotkey and a panel slides in showing every keyboard shortcut available in the frontmost app, plus the macOS system shortcuts. Searchable, multi-column, dismissable.
SpaceMan
User-driven workspace snapshots. Capture a named window layout on any Mission Control space and restore it later — including launching missing apps and spawning extra windows.
WindowPin
Pin any window as a floating always-on-top overlay with live capture. Toggle with a hot-key. Overlay auto-hides when the source app comes to front.
