Empirically, at least on my machine (weasel words I know, sorry), I couldn't seem to make the defaults write "stick" if I performed it while Bluesnooze was still running. I was able to hide the menu bar icon by writing defaults when Bluesnooze was not already running, and similarly to get it showing again.


Related: #27

I'm not sure if something else in my environment was causing the issue, but these tweaked instructions might be more reliable? Up to the maintainer, I might have missed something!

FWIW, I have the same problem as stated here: #27 (comment)
No idea why, tried killing it before or after writing, doesn't matter

Interesting 🤔

What does defaults read com.oliverpeate.Bluesnooze hideIcon return on your machine?

It returns 1. The icon is still up there (despite being restarted after writing the value).

I will look more into this tonight, I am kind of new to MacOS so it might be another tool that is somehow missing with this (I have no idea).

IIRC I was seeing that defaults read return 0 until I killed the app before writing but I honestly can't remember. It's possible this docs PR doesn't really help anything. 🤔

Adding some anecdata: this works for me with the brew version but not downloading the .zip.

Hi. Mac M1, OS Ventura 13.5.2. Your tweak helped me, thanks. I Think you should merge it.
Downloaded your app from zip file.

Hi 👋

Unfortunately workaround did not work on my end.
Env:

  • Chip M3
  • Sonoma 14.2
  • Bluesnooze v1.2 via brew

This worked for me! but with the homebrew version, not the zip one.
