There are some great options, but they are not free. I wish I could share another app that perfectly fits into the menu bar, and that would be a weather app. This comes in pretty handy when I’m coding and cooking, a dangerous combo by the way 🙂 Missing piece =) Once the timer runs out, there is an audible alert to remind you it’s over. I can quickly set a timer or start a stopwatch. This one I love because of its simplicity. It’s easy to use, fast and gives you exactly what you need. Once you start using it, it’ll quickly become a permanent part of your daily workflow.Horo is the timer app you need for your menu bar. As it’s free, there is no reason for you not to download it and kick the tires. Itsycal’s only requirement is that you must have macOS 10.12 or later. Certainly faster than launching Calendar whenever I have to check the day’s schedule. There are roughly a dozen keyboard commands that allow you to perform other functions from navigating months and years, adding and removing rows, toggling weeks, and more.įor a free Menu Bar app, it is very versatile and powerful. A pane will appear to ask you if you’re sure that you want to do this. Once you have completed an event, click on the “X” on the right side and delete that event. It can show you as many or as few days as you wish, according to your preferences. Plus, you can alter Itsycal’s appearance and check for updates.įinally, you come to your day’s itinerary. If you want to make changes, you can do it from here. Your calendar is configured the way you configured your Calendar app. So, when necessary, if you’re already in Itsycal, simply click the icon right to launch Calendar. Why? Because the only thing you can’t do with Itsycal is edit an event. The next icon launches Apple’s Calendar app. I couldn’t get it to function but I would imagine that it allows you to drag the calendar anywhere on your desktop. Moving right, the next icon allows you to pin or unpin the app. And you can set an alert and assign your event a category that you have already created in Apple’s Calendar. There’s a dropdown repeat menu as in your Calendar app. It opens a pane where you can enter the event’s name and location. Starting from the left, the “+” icon allows you to create a new event. You click on any day and it will bring up that day’s events. You can move through previous and future months by clicking on the chevrons in the upper right corner (this can also be accomplished on a trackpad with a two-finger swipe left or right). To hide the app, click on the icon once again.Īt the top of the dropdown is the current month with the current date highlighted. All you need to do is click on the date icon and you are presented with numerous items for instant access. It utilizes all of you Calendar app’s information. It is a “companion” to your Calendar app. Itsycal resides in you Menu Bar as an icon that displays the current date. I’ve stumbled across a free Menu Bar app that keeps me from launching my Calendar app about 80% of the time. Some repetitive tasks are mundane, like glancing at your Menu Bar for the time, weather, and such. (If anyone knows of how to run Automator scripts from there, please let me know.) You can launch apps from there, you can run AppleScripts from there, you can perform a plethora of actions from there. My preferred method is using the Menu Bar. There are many ways to streamline your workflow on your Mac The most obvious example being automation.
