Set Up MistBar

Grab the app, then activate it with the license key we email you after checkout.

Download MistBar

macOS 14+ · Apple silicon and Intel · Apple-notarized

Install the App

Open the MistBar disk image you downloaded, drag MistBar into your Applications folder, and launch it from there.

Prefer the command line? Install with Homebrew instead: brew install --cask skj-apps/tap/mistbar

Activate Your License

In MistBar, open Settings → License, pick Enter License Key, and paste the key from the license email we sent you - it arrives separately from your payment receipt.

Allow Menu-Bar Access

On a MacBook, MistBar uses Accessibility to hide and rearrange menu-bar items, not Screen Recording. On a Mac without a notch (an iMac, Mac mini, Mac Studio, or an external display set as the main screen), macOS 27 leaves no edge to hide against, so hiding photographs the bar and needs Screen Recording, and MistBar asks for it the first time you hide. Otherwise only the optional Tight Icon Spacing on macOS 27 asks for it, and it is off by default. Your license covers 3 Macs; free one up in Settings → License when you want to move it.
