Vibe Eyes: Menu Bar Pet
Desktop buddy & eye breaks
Only for Mac
Free · In‑App Purchases
Mac
A pet for your Mac's menu bar, with eyes that really follow your cursor. Make one from any photo — then let it walk you through a 60-second eye break.
Vibe Eyes tucks a small, expressive avatar into your Mac's menu bar. Its eyes track your cursor, blink naturally, and glance up at you when you've stepped away - a little bit of personality your menu bar has been missing.
FOLLOWS YOUR EVERY MOVE
The eyes track your cursor smoothly across the whole screen, with natural blinking and idle behaviours, so it never feels robotic or repetitive. Click anywhere and it winks back.
ELEVEN CHARACTERS, ALL INCLUDED
A poodle, a pig, a bengal cat, a crocodile, a bull terrier, a silver fold, a ginger tabby, an aussie pup, a french bulldog, a green blob, and Brie. Pick one and it moves into your menu bar.
MAKE IT YOURS
- Browse the whole cast in a carousel and put any of them on the menu bar in one click
- Adjust pupil size to taste, and turn blinking or wink-on-click on and off
- Pick an accent colour from fourteen, or mix your own
- Nudge a character's eyes exactly where you want them
REST YOUR EYES
Eye Breaks are gentle reminders to look away, on a schedule you choose. Your character leads a one-minute exercise: follow it across the screen, gaze into the distance for twenty seconds, then blink along. They never interrupt a movie or a presentation, and any you miss while away from your Mac are simply skipped. Off by default.
GENERATE YOUR OWN, WITH VIBE EYES PLUS
Vibe Eyes Plus is a one-time purchase that unlocks Studio: drop in a photo and the app turns it into a menu-bar character of your own, with the same tracking eyes and blinks as the built-in ones. Generation runs on your own image-provider account - connect a key for Google Gemini, OpenRouter, or any OpenAI-compatible host, and that provider bills you directly for what you make. Everything else in Vibe Eyes stays free.
LIGHTWEIGHT AND PRIVATE
A native SwiftUI app built to sip battery, not drain it - it slows its own refresh rate the moment your cursor stops moving. It needs no special permissions at all. There is no account and no analytics, and your cursor position never leaves your Mac. The only thing ever sent anywhere is a photo you choose to generate from, and it goes straight to the provider you connected.
Give your menu bar a little personality.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• A completely new look. The settings window has been rebuilt from scratch - light, airy and glass-like, with a drifting colour backdrop.
• Your characters now live in a carousel: flip through the whole cast, see one full size, and press Make it mine when you've found the one.
• Studio is now a workspace: the photo you're turning into an avatar on the left, your whole library beside it on the right.
• Fourteen accent colours instead of four, or mix your own.
• Small wooden clicks on the things that matter - putting an avatar on the menu bar, flipping a switch. Turn them off in Settings.
• Hand-tuned eyes on every built-in character, and you can still nudge any of them yourself.
