iBar-Menubar helps Mac users manage menu bar icons by hiding items and bringing them back when needed. Its standard mode folds hidden icons, while aggregation mode displays them in a panel below the menu bar. The maker says the panel can reveal icons obscured by a MacBook notch. In aggregation mode, a hidden icon can be temporarily placed in the menu bar so you can use its app menu, then hidden again after an optional delay. You can adjust icon spacing and reorder items in the app’s menu bar layout settings. iBar supports Apple M-series and Intel Macs; the App Store listing requires macOS 10.12 or later and identifies it as Mac only. The free plan is free to download, with in-app purchases available. A one-year subscription is listed at 18.00 CNY per year. The developer reports collecting no data, though Apple says this developer-provided privacy information has not been verified.
