I made an app to hide the Notch on the new MacBook Pro, called Forehead. It also allows you to round the screen corners if that’s your thing.

Native macOS fix for applications hiding under the MacBook Pro notch
5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 12 Feb 2024

> * I discovered a free, native macOS solution that doesn't require installing Bartender or any other additional apps.*
> You can adjust the values from 0 to 6 to accommodate even more icons. Personally, I found 6 to be a good fit.
It's ultimately a really petty point - but this is not a fix. This increases the number of apps on the top bar before the problem occurs. Bartender (and hidden[1] - which I discovered in this thread) fix the problem. Calling a technique that delays the problem "a solution" after sneering at a project that actually is a solution just rubs me the wrong way.

Windows like hide/unhide menu bar items in Mac?
1 project | /r/osx | 5 May 2023

There's Hidden Bar but I think it's a lot like Bartender. It has an arrow too if that's what you want.
In your opinion, what is the best one-time (non-recurring) purchase Mac App?

Dozer (free - open source), HiddenBar (free), free alternatives to bartender, however, only does 1 thing and that's hiding the icons, not adding an extra menu, nothing just icons here, icons gone.
What happens when your menu bar has too many icons and it goes underneath the notch? Thoughts on notch and the need to use an app like Bartender for the new-gen MBPs?

For apps that you never interact with that way, and won't let you turn their icons off, get HiddenBar.
