What it does

Free, open-source menu bar organizer for macOS 27. Keep everyday apps visible, reveal occasional ones with a click, and hide the rest. No Screen Recording.

Every little app wants a spot in your menu bar. Blenny gives each one a depth instead: keep the essentials at the Surface, tuck the occasional ones into the Reef, and let the rest sink into the Deep. Surface apps keep their place in the menu bar while Blenny manages it. Wi‑Fi, battery, the one timer you actually check: they stay in the light, right where your eyes expect them. Reef apps stay out of the way until you click the fish. Then they come up for a short reveal session and slip back when you are done. Like a blenny in its crevice: head out, watching, never in the way. Deep apps stay out of the menu bar and out of every reveal session. They keep running and stay yours; they just stop…from blenny.fi5h.xyz

I spend ~40% of my day context-switching between apps — Zoom meetings, Slack channels, Code projects, and Figma designs. My macOS menu bar has too many useless icons I almost never use. So I thought to myself, how can I use this area to improve my workflows? Most solutions (Bartender, Ice) require screen recording permissions, and did not really solve my…
