StatusPerch is a lightweight macOS menu bar organizer for people who want the clock and everyday icons visible without letting every background utility take over the bar. Hold Command to place compatible low-frequency icons on one side of its divider, then click the chevron to hide or reveal them. Everything stays on the Mac: no account, analytics, Screen Recording, or Accessibility permission. It supports Apple silicon and Intel Macs on macOS 13 or later.
Hide and reveal low-frequency menu bar icons with one click.
Uses macOS native Command-drag ordering.
Local-only settings with no account or analytics.
No Screen Recording or Accessibility permission required.
Supports macOS 13+, Apple silicon, and Intel Macs.
Keep the clock and everyday icons visible on a crowded menu bar.
Temporarily reveal background utilities only when needed.
Make better use of limited menu bar space on notched MacBooks and external displays.

I built StatusPerch because my Mac menu bar kept getting crowded before my desktop did. I wanted a small tool that keeps the clock and everyday icons visible, while letting me tuck away background utilities until I actually need them. I deliberately kept it local-only and avoided Screen Recording or Accessibility permissions. This is the first release, so I am especially curious how it behaves on notched MacBooks, external displays, and alongside other menu bar tools.
