SaneBar
Hide and organize macOS menu bar icons with Touch ID lock
Visit sanebar.com ↗What is SaneBar?
SaneBar is a free, open-source menu bar manager for macOS that lets you hide clutter while keeping important icons visible. It includes Touch ID and password protection, smart triggers based on battery or Wi-Fi status, profiles, and customizable hotkeys. Everything runs on-device with no cloud sync or telemetry.
The app offers two viewing modes: a compact icon panel or a second menu bar. Users can search hidden apps by name, set auto-rehide timing, and export settings. The maker built it in one weekend using Claude Code, and the project is now community-maintained under the MIT license with all features free and unlocked.
