ToothFairy
ToothFairy is a Mac utility that makes it faster to connect, disconnect, and monitor Bluetooth audio devices and accessories from the menu bar.
What is ToothFairy?
ToothFairy is a native Mac utility for managing Bluetooth devices with quicker controls than the standard system menus. It helps Mac users connect and disconnect AirPods, headphones, speakers, keyboards, mice, and other paired accessories with a single click or keyboard shortcut. The app places device icons in the menu bar so you can check connection status and battery levels at a glance without opening deeper settings panes. It also lets you switch audio output more conveniently and can improve audio handling for listening-focused use cases. Advanced users can trigger scripts when devices connect or disconnect, which makes the app useful in automation-heavy desktop workflows. ToothFairy is published by C-Command Software for macOS and is best suited to people who regularly switch Bluetooth devices during work, calls, music, or video use.

Safety overview
Status: Safe
ToothFairy is a legitimate Bluetooth helper for macOS. It needs normal Bluetooth access to connect and disconnect accessories, and some features may interact with audio output settings or run user-created scripts if you enable automation options. That behavior matches the app's purpose. If you use connection scripts, review your own script actions carefully so they only change what you expect.
Recommendation: Keep ToothFairy if you regularly use AirPods or other Bluetooth accessories with your Mac and want faster switching from the menu bar. If you no longer need its shortcuts or device controls, you can remove it without affecting macOS itself, though you will lose its quick-connect features and any related automation.
