About Barred

Barred keeps an overcrowded macOS menu bar under control. Hide rarely used icons in a collapsible secondary bar, reveal them with one click, reorder items, and choose when the bar hides itself again. It’s a small, native utility with no Dock icon, accounts, analytics, or network access.

About Quicky

Quicky drops a fast, keyboard-first panel from your Mac & PC's menu bar so files, folders, apps, and links are one click away. Organize shortcuts into color-coded Sets per project, and find anything by typing a few letters. No data collected, no network calls: private, native SwiftUI, macOS 14+.
