wont recognize permssion to record screen

Extremely buggy. Doesn’t open apps and instead causes a wierd cursor flicker near the […] icon. right clicking any item on the bar never works. I have tried many settings and it simply doesn’t work as expected. I’ve had issues with it for over 4 years on my M1 and M4 mbp machines with the notch.

1 year passed and I still having random crashes (after mac sleep), mouse is moving to the random places quite often and even sometimes makes a random clicks. Terrible sofware, gonna delete and find proper alternative

Latest release seems to be very buggy. Fails to update my menubar after arranging it on multiple occasions.

stopped working

6.5.2 - This causes my Mac to freeze when I try to change what is showing in my menu bar. I am considering uninstalling and using an alternative.

I understand all the constraints from macOS, but the amount of mouse jumps, glitches, and instability is honestly insane. I've been buying and using Bartender on several Macs for the last 6 years, and this is the first time I'm uninstalling it. Shame.

I literally can’t set it up. Tried all your tricks. Cannot get the app to realize I’ve already given it permission to record my screen.

It can’t just be me; I struggle to load/show apps. Icons keep disappearing from the menu bar; I constantly have to add them back. Usually the SetApp apps are affected - like LofiGarden. Honestly, Bartender is ruining the SetApp experience - at least for me. Uninstalling and seeking alternatives.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love this app!

Just love it.

Latest update seems to have messed something up. Weird behaviour on my Mac when Bartender is running, plus something is happening for it to automatically disable itself - not sure if it's macOS disabling the Bartender app, or Bartender app disabling itself somehow. Giving it a 👎🏼 until it's fixed.

Where has the stable and reliable Bartender gone? With so many bugs and a terrible user experience, it's no longer a decent product. It constantly messes up my carefully configured menu bar. This abysmal product experience is incredibly frustrating. I've been hoping for improvements so I could continue using it, but after several updates, the experience remains consistently poor and difficult to use. I'm completely disillusioned. I'm going to look for an alternative menu bar icon management tool. The developers of Bartender are just...unacceptable.

Eccellente applicazione. Ormai una compagna fissa nei miei mac.

I’ve been using this app for quite a while, and I really enjoy it. However, I’ve noticed some bugs where things hide and unhide unexpectedly, and the app starts to feel laggy. I hope the team can work on fixing these issues soon. Thanks for your hard work!

macOS 15 and 26 have been creating real trouble for Bartender. 😞 Version 6 has improved, but still has problems keeping menu items in order, in the right place vs the Macbook Notch, and occasionaly makes the window manager lag so badly that every app is affected until Bartender is forced to quit. I’ve been using Bartender since version 2, and I’ve been an enthusastic advocate, but as it stands now, it is buggy AF (and it’s not even their fault; it’s Apple’s changes that have broken it.) 😞

Seems to be working again finally

it’s so good

Good!

Works well and easy to use
