A few useful details

Can closed apps stay in my menu?

Yes. Pin an application to keep it in your chosen order. Selecting it opens the app when needed.

What happens with a large folder?

Folder menus show up to 100 sampled entries and ten levels, with Show in Finder close by for the complete folder.

Can I make the menu look like mine?

Choose a quick icon, emoji, symbol, image or short text label. Record an optional keyboard shortcut to open it.

What happens after the demo expires?

MenuGlide still opens. Application actions and access to Processes require a valid licence; the standard Unlock window lets you enter one.

A Clearer Desktop

Hide All clears applications from view and brings an already-open Finder forward. Your apps keep running.

A Personal Menu Bar

Choose a quick icon, emoji, symbol, custom image or short text label for MenuGlide.
