It is probably because of one of these commits:
I can not reproduce this with my setup, so the debugging will be a bit of a guessing game.
thank you for your prompt response.
to be honest, when i reviewed the log for the new update, i suspected that the issue might be related to it. i held off on submitting this issue because i initially thought it might be unique to my laptop (though i'm not entirely certain).
i cannot reproduce this with my setup
i'm unsure about how i can assist in diagnosing the root cause of the problem. it's possible that the issue may be tied to my older macos version, but i'm planning to update my mac this week.
once again, thank you for your help.
You could try the current commit: https://github.com/FelixKratz/SketchyBar/commit/9d9529cb79de62ded7346abfaf2a0bcc6cf70bd2
To do this simply run:
brew uninstall sketchybar
brew install sketchybar --head
brew services restart sketchybar
and then to go back to the stable version:
brew uninstall sketchybar
brew install sketchybar
brew services restart sketchybar
this is my config, if it helps.

Thank you 🙏. I did that now and I'll wait for a day or two to see if the issue persisted or not. then will update here.
I came to the issues to see if someone reported this, because I just started experiencing it too.
For me to reproduce consistently:
I tried the updated commit https://github.com/FelixKratz/SketchyBar/commit/9d9529cb79de62ded7346abfaf2a0bcc6cf70bd2 and repeated the steps above and the behavior is different but not perfect:
Hopefully this can shed some light on the issue.
thanks for your patience. after three days of testing, i'd like to share my observations.
here's what i did:
brew uninstall sketchybar
brew install sketchybar --head
brew services restart sketchybar
upon completing these steps, sketchybar exhibited instability. it continued to disappear and reappear as if it was undergoing a restart, and this behavior occurred even when the computer was not in sleep mode.
i then tried the following:
brew uninstall sketchybar
brew install sketchybar
brew services restart sketchybar
following this second set of actions, the issue only occurred once for the remainder of that day. on the second day and half of the third day, it worked perfectly, leading me to believe that the issue was resolved. unfortunately, it resurfaced twice within a couple of hours: once after the computer had been asleep for two hours and again immediately after a 15-minute period of sleep.
sketchybar
back and make it reappear, i had to use the command sketchybar --reload
.thanks for your assistance.
Could you see if you find the crash logs for sketchybar by going to: Applications -> Utilities -> Console.app and in Console.app choose "Crash Reports" in the left hand panel and look for a crash report for sketchybar
I have the same issue. Checked the Crash Reports, nothing about sketchybar. I've tried installing the head version, still the same issue.
No idea why or how it happens.
Could you try latests commit with
brew uninstall sketchybar
brew install sketchybar --head
brew services restart sketchybar
thank you, many crash reports but they are more than 3 days ago. I don't have new ones. here is the last one on 31 October.
I installed last commit. I will see if the issue persists.
Thanks for posting the crash report, I think I will be able to fix this particular crash before the next release.
I've been testing the --head
version for 2 days, and it was working flawlessly, but with one issue.
from my observation, I noticed that when I open the brave browser and then open multiple video tabs (like multiple youtube video tabs and play them) the sketchybar goes crazy and keeps restarting, but I'm not sure if my observation is correct.
Yes I think your observation is correct, the crash happens in the media_change event handler when trying to retain a value. Will look into fixing this problem.
I hope all of these problems are fixed in v2.19.0. Feel free to reopen if the problem persists.
thank you so much for your responses and help. i've been testing the newest version, Sketchybar v2.19.01, and it works perfectly with no issues—except for one involving media. the problem arises with chrome and brave browsers. any playing video on these browsers triggers the issue.
However, i won't reopen this issue for two reasons: firstly, the problem doesn't occur on Firefox or Arc (although this browser is built on chromium), and secondly, i primarily use arc nowadays, so i haven't experienced the issue.
thanks again!
I have just release 2.19.2 and I hope these problems are now finally solved.
Hmm, I'm on version 2.19.5 and I still have the same problem... I can reproduce it so easily, closing the lid and then reopening within a couple seconds makes sketchybar disappear. It's still running (according to Activity Monitor), but it's not visible at all...
first and foremost, i want to express my gratitude for creating this fantastic bar.
Up until a couple of days ago, i had never encountered any problems with sketchybar. however, after the latest update, i noticed that the sketchybar disappears when my laptop goes to sleep, especially when it's left idle for a few hours.
it doesn't occur consistently, but it happens to me twice a day. this issue only started after the last update. i attempted to resolve it by uninstalling sketchybar and then reinstalling it, but unfortunately, that did not resolve the problem.
sketchybar version: v2.18.0 MacOS version: 12.6 (I'm not sure if it is because the old version but I'm planning to update this week. just I had no storage space in my mac :) )
thank you
