About

Boring Old Menu Bar is a simple and reliable application that restores the classic, opaque menu bar (in the style of macOS Catalina) to all newer system versions (from Big Sur and up, including the very latest releases).
Many users dislike the transparent, "glassy" menu bar introduced in Big Sur (which became even more minimalist in subsequent versions).Boring Old Menu Bar solves this problem by bringing back the familiar opaque look of the menu bar, complete with extensive customization options.

Key Features:

• Restores the classic macOS Catalina menu bar style (opaque, with a drop shadow)
• Multiple menu bar styles to choose from
• Fully customizable colors (configured separately for Light and Dark modes)
• Rounded corners for both the menu bar and the entire screen
• Automatically detects changes in screen resolution and wallpaper
• Multi-monitor support
• Supports Dynamic Wallpapers and custom background images (in newer versions)
• Runs as a standard application—requiring no administrator privileges, KEXTs, system hacks, or deep system modifications (making it very safe)
