MenuDart
Opens app menus and menu bar icons next to your pointer
The verdict
Press a shortcut and MenuDart opens the front app's menus in a popup right next to your pointer, with a search box that finds any command, including ones buried in submenus. A second shortcut lays out every menu bar icon in a grid, even the ones hidden behind the notch, and clicks the real icon for you. Your menu bar stays exactly as it is, and the app sends none of your data anywhere.
Get it if
You work on a big display or a notched MacBook and are tired of dragging the pointer to the top corner to find a menu or an icon.
Skip it if
You only want to hide and tidy your menu bar icons, which the free Ice app already does.
What it helps you do
- Search any app's menus from the keyboard
- Reach menu bar icons hidden by the notch
- Open menus right where your pointer is
- Run menu commands without touching the trackpad
