Release Notes

Bartender 6.6.1 The latest build of Bartender is focused on improving two key areas - stability in live mode, and overall performance. We've revamped the layout page to fix strange issues like missing images, or items disappearing mid/post moves. Bartender has the lowest memory & CPU usage we've recorded despite the larger workload required to manage the bar on Tahoe. Fixes

  • Memory usage should no longer creep up over longer sessions for users with triggers enabled.
  • Triggers should "update" more reliably.
  • Leaving open the layout page will no longer cause memory usage to stay high after editing your bar.
  • The layout page should no longer see "disappearing icons" when moving things around, or after leaving the app open for a while.
  • CPU usage should be lower in general, but in particular when using live mode.
  • In live mode, the menu bar should "settle" faster, and perform far fewer operations to get your bar into the correct order.
  • Battery usage should be reduced overall, but enabling the "lower power usage on battery" setting will lower this further, at the cost of some live updates being delayed. Generally this delay shouldn't be noticeable unless you're updating your menu bar constantly. If you face any issues with this update, or want to share a feature request, please reach out to us.
