In case you are already using my BetterTouchTool app: I have created a little tutorial & example preset here on how to use it for status item management: https://community.folivora.ai/t/bartender-controversy-tutori...

You can add feature requests there, it should be pretty simple to extend BTT to support the remaining required features.

I have also recently been approached by shady companies trying to buy my app (I'd never do that) - maybe they are currently targeting apps that require special permissions?

I found an old Leap Motion device in a storage box with USB devices last week. The support you provided for it was great and had me waving at my desk all day.

Even though the Leap Motion is now unsupported, I still enjoy using BTT daily.

Haha, yes Leap Motion was a lot of fun and I think the BTT integration landed me my first job (@Siemens) after university. That must have been almost 10 years ago -- yep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDJKFtLDx4k

Wait, the software I’ve been using for what feels like decades and which always gave me a charming, cosy old school vibe due to its almost infinite options and deep understanding of OS X/macOS was written by someone younger than me!?

Mind blown.

It’s an incredible tool and among the first things I install on a new Mac.

[flanbiscuit]

oh that's cool. I have the original (first version) of the Leap Motion in a box somewhere. Now I want to pull it out and install BTT and see what I can do with it.

[fifafu]

unfortunately I removed Leap Motion support a few years ago ;-(

[nicolas_t]

oh pity, anyway to have it work in an unsupported fork? Or do older version of the software work on modern os x?

BTT is a fantastic app. I’ve been using it to tune up the ergonomics of macOS for over a decade now. Thank you for all your work on it!

That hides icons to the left of BTT, but BTT is already my leftmost icon. Do I need to change the startup order or something? Currently using HiddenBar which works great, but if I can use fewer apps, so much the better.

And thanks for BTT! It's in my "must-have" apps for any Mac along with Karabiner Elements.

you can reorder the status bar icons by holding cmd & dragging

Your BTT is always one of the first two apps I install on any Mac I buy. Thanks! (The other is Keyboard Maestro.)

I just bought a license for BTT after having used it for a week or so. It's absolutely amazing. Thank you for making this awesome tool.

[eviks]

Thanks, is BTT capable enough to also track changes and show icons temporarily if an app's icon becomes active?

Your app is my favourite Mac app.

I’ve been using it for years! It’s a wonderful app.
