Feature: Hide menu bar item? #724

Closed FezVrasta closed 1 month ago

Issue that this suggestion fixes

I only use MeetingBar for the full screen notification, so I would like to hide the menu bar item to declutter my Mac.

Solution description

Having an option to completely disable/hide the menu bar item would be great.

Alternatives considered

I am currently hiding it using Bartender but it would be nice not to have to use a separate app.

Additional context

No response

Hi @FezVrasta, Thanks for the request. Sorry, but the menu bar item is the only way to interact with the app so it's not a good idea to hide it.

Are you saying my use case is invalid?

leits commented 1 month ago

Valid :) In this case, I do recommend using apps like Bartender or Dozer. These applications hide the status of bar items in a controlled manner. If the MeetingBar disappears on its own, only a full reset will help to open the application again if the settings are incorrect or the integration is out of sync.

~What about integration with Raycast? Is the menu bar needed for that?~

Never mind, it looks like the existing command simply clicks on the menu items.
