Fantastic for organising the menu bar!

I've been using Hidden Bar for a while now, and it's been exactly what I needed to keep extra menu bar clutter hidden on my ultra-wide monitor. There are a lot of utilities I'd like to keep within easy reach, but don't want to see them all the time. Hidden Bar is the answer. And unlike some alternatives, it doesn't require screen recording permissions!

However, this also means it's not particularly suitable for managing the menu bar on a mac with a notch. Hidden Bar doesn't capture additional menu bar items and display them in a drop down. It simply hides them. So if you have more items than can be shown in the limited right-hand space of a notched menu bar, it's not really helpful.

My only concern; I hope it's still supported and will be updated when/if a MacOS update breaks something.

Great little utility

A couple small suggestions for the developers:
A note explaining how the clock might change would be helpful. For me, the clock was losing the date when the hidden icons were collapsed. I fixed this by changing the Dock & Menu Bar system preferences from "show date when space allows" to "show date always".
I don't know if this second suggestion is even possible, but... it would be great if the Hidden Bar icon (the small <) could also be hidden. Maybe just an option to pick the color of the icon so I could get something very close to the background color of the menu bar?
Again, this is a great little utility. I've had it for only a few minutes, and I already love it. Thank you so much for making this available to everyone!

Exactly the thing i needed

If you want to have multiple apps easy-access in your menu bar, but only want to see some more than others, then this is the app for you. When I open chrome, the things like "File," "Edit," "View," ect. take up half of the menu bar when I open it, and all apps I have linked to my menu bar are hidden because of this. Most of the time its the apps that I need that are hidden, but this app solves that problem for me. With 'Hidden Bar,' I'm able to choose which apps I want sabotaged by chrome's overbearing presence in the menu bar, which is a huge help. Thank you hidden bar!!! Excellent app!!
