Tuck Support

Tuck keeps your menu bar tidy. It hides the icons you rarely need behind a small arrow and brings them back with one click. It is designed for the menu bar in macOS 27.

Frequently asked questions

How do I hide icons?

Tuck adds an arrow and a thin separator line to the menu bar. Hold Command and drag any menu bar icon to the left of the line. Then click the arrow: everything left of the line is hidden. Click the arrow again to show it.

What is the dotted mark that appears when I hold Command?

It shows where to drop. Put icons to the left of the dotted mark. If an icon ends up between the mark and the line, the mark turns orange: the icon is still hidden, but clicking the arrow will flash a long highlight across the menu bar. Drag the icon to the left of the mark to fix it.

I dragged the line and it jumped back

That is intended. The line stays next to the arrow; you change what is hidden by moving icons across it, not by moving the line.

An icon I want hidden is still showing

Make sure it sits to the left of the line. Icons to the right of the arrow are always visible.

What is the always-hidden section?

Turn it on in Preferences to get a second, fainter line. Icons to the left of it stay hidden even when you click the arrow; hold Option and click the arrow to reveal them.

Can the icons hide again automatically?

Yes. Preferences → “Hide icons again after” sets the delay, or choose Never. Tuck waits while your pointer is in the menu bar.

There is a small « at the left end of the menu bar

That is macOS's own overflow indicator, which the system shows when menu bar items don't fit. It is not part of Tuck.

Does Tuck need any permissions?

No. It does not use Accessibility access or Screen Recording, and it never connects to the internet.

How do I open Preferences or quit?

Right-click the arrow.

Can I control Tuck from Shortcuts or a script?

Yes. Open the links tuck://toggle, tuck://expand, tuck://expand-all or tuck://collapse. You can also set a global shortcut in Preferences.

Language

The interface follows your macOS language: English and Simplified Chinese.
