OverflowBar v1.5 gives selected menu bar icons a second row. Open an icon there to use its original menu or popover.
v1.5.0 is the latest stable release, with an updated native menu bar engine. Existing users can install it through the signed in-app updater or download the release. The previous stable v1.0.19 release remains available as a manual fallback.

- Source-aware Tahoe discovery, including Control Center-hosted windows.
- Authenticated ad-hoc discovery and recyclable capture helpers.
- Open selected icons using Accessibility or supported menu bar actions.
- A scrollable panel with system materials and keyboard accessibility.
- Universal Intel/Apple Silicon build; macOS 15 target; macOS 27+ fails open.
- Ad-hoc signing and signed Sparkle updates; no paid certificate required.
Accessibility is required to hide selected icons and open their menus. Screen Recording enables live previews. Moving icons may briefly move the pointer; you can cancel an operation at any time.
