Menubar Countdown
Menubar Countdown is a small utility app that displays a countdown timer in the macOS menu bar. It lets users set a target date or time and displays the remaining days, hours, minutes and seconds directly in the top menu bar for quick reference without requiring a separate window. This is useful for tracking event dates, project deadlines, holidays, or personal milestones at a glance.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionNo public information is available about whether a native Apple Silicon build of Menubar Countdown exists. The app is a small utility with minimal web presence, making it difficult to determine the developer's current status or plans. Contact the developer directly via the app's support channels or the bundle ID domain (kristopherjohnson.net) to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is available or planned. Given that Apple will remove Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), it is important to confirm the app's status sooner rather than later — an Intel-only build will stop launching on that release. If the developer is no longer active or has no plans for a native build, consider lightweight alternatives like Timing, Fantastical, or Reminders (built into macOS), all of which run natively on Apple Silicon and can display countdowns or event reminders.
