Mac apps by whrss9527
Small, quiet apps that live in your menu bar.
Four native Swift utilities for macOS: a right-click toolbox, a menu bar manager, stock quotes and a proxy switch. They share one glass look, stay out of the way, and cost nothing.

Signed and notarized
Current releases are signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple. Open the DMG and drag the app into Applications.
Updates itself
Each app checks GitHub Releases, verifies the SHA-256 checksum and code signature, replaces itself and relaunches.
Private by default
No accounts or usage telemetry. Local tools run on your Mac; online features connect to their services. See each app’s privacy policy for details.
Open source
All four are free software under GPL-3.0. Read the code, build it yourself, send a fix.
About
I’m whrss9527, an independent developer. I build these apps for my own Mac first and publish them in the open. I write about how they’re made on my blog, and everything else is on GitHub.
