About:
PiBar is a native macOS menu bar application designed for monitoring and managing multiple Pi-hole instances simultaneously. It provides real-time visibility into network statistics, blocking status, and DNS query activity without needing to open a web browser. The tool simplifies administrative tasks by allowing users to toggle blocking, view analytics, and receive notifications directly from the menu bar.

Key Features:

Monitor multiple Pi-hole instances from a single menu bar icon
Real-time statistics including queries, blocks, and domains blocked
Quickly enable or disable blocking for individual Pi-holes
Native macOS interface with dark mode support
Notifications for Pi-hole status changes

Use Cases:

Network administrators managing Pi-hole for home or business networks
Users needing quick access to Pi-hole stats without browser login
Monitoring the health and performance of redundant Pi-hole setups

Alternatives:

Pi-hole Remote – PiBar offers a more native, lightweight macOS experience compared to web-based or cross-platform remote apps.
Browser Bookmark – PiBar provides instant, at-a-glance data and controls, eliminating the need to navigate to the web interface manually.
