Build precise Mac actions and trigger them from the bar
ExtraBar transforms your macOS menu bar into a customizable command center. Jump to Zoom meetings, Slack channels, VS Code projects, or Figma files instantly. Deep link into apps, run scripts, trigger automations, and access anything with keyboard shortcuts. Built for designers, developers, and anyone tired of clicking through endless menus.
ExtraBar supports 15 action types including Apple Shortcuts, shell scripts, AppleScripts, and Keyboard Maestro macros. Users can organize these into menu bar folders and trigger them with single clicks or custom hotkeys, replacing the need to memorize dozens of keyboard shortcuts or open automation apps.
ExtraBar offers five display modes (menu bar, floating bar, collapsed icon, notch mode, launcher) and folder organization. Users can hide the menu bar entirely, collapse multiple actions under one icon, or move icons to the MacBook notch, keeping the interface clean while maintaining instant access to custom actions.
ExtraBar is purpose-built for designers (Figma deep links), developers (Git branch switching, IDE project launch), and managers (dashboard access, Slack channels, Zoom meetings). Each role can build a custom menu bar that mirrors their workflow, reducing tool-switching overhead and keeping context-specific actions one click away.
ExtraBar lets users create custom menu bar actions that deep link directly into specific app screens, notes, projects, or commands (e.g., open Notion sprint board, jump to Obsidian daily note, trigger Raycast commands) without launching the full app. This eliminates the delay of waiting for apps to load and keeps focus on current work.
ExtraBar integrates with 20+ productivity apps (OmniFocus, Things 3, Todoist, Obsidian, Notion, Fantastical, Spark, etc.) and lets users create custom sections for each. Users can switch between project presets, keeping their menu bar context-aware and always showing the tools they need right now.
