I made a macOS app to let you turn On/Off the Touch Bar at will▲23
I bought a new Macbook a few months ago and I found myself hitting the Touch Bar accidentally pretty often. After some frustrations, I made an app to turn it off at will. I found it so convenient I decided to add extra features (auto launch, auto update, ...) and release it for others to use. It would be really great to hear what you guys think so please feel free to share any feedback. Also use the coupon code HNHMB10 to get 50% off for a limited time. I hope it will be as useful to you as it is to me! Website : https://hidemybar.clemstation.com/
