About:
Hidden Bar is a lightweight utility for macOS that allows users to declutter their menu bar by hiding or rearranging menu bar icons. It provides a simple interface to manage which applications display their status items, reducing visual noise without quitting the apps. This helps maintain a clean and focused workspace, especially for users with many background applications.
Key Features:
  • One-click hide/show menu bar items
  • Drag-and-drop reordering of icons
  • Customizable hotkey support
  • Lightweight and runs in the background
  • No configuration files required
Use Cases:
  • Cleaning up a crowded menu bar for better focus
  • Temporarily hiding non-essential status icons during presentations or screen sharing
Alternatives:
  • Bartender – More feature-rich with advanced scheduling and search, but paid
  • Dozer – Open-source alternative with similar hide/show functionality
