BuhoBarX
BuhoBarX is a Mac menu bar manager that helps you hide, show, and rearrange menu bar icons for a cleaner and easier-to-use workspace.
What is BuhoBarX?
BuhoBarX is a native macOS menu bar management app for organizing crowded menu bar icons. It helps Mac users hide less-used items, keep important icons visible, and access hidden icons from a separate panel when space is limited. The app is especially useful on MacBook models with a notch, where menu bar items can become obscured or pushed out of view. BuhoBarX also lets you reorder menu bar items, adjust spacing, and trigger hidden sections with keyboard shortcuts to fit different workflows. It is designed for people who want a tidier menu bar without constantly opening System Settings or manually juggling app icons. BuhoBarX is published by Dr.Buho and runs on modern versions of macOS.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
BuhoBarX is a menu bar utility, so running at login is consistent with its purpose. To manage and interact with menu bar items, it may request macOS accessibility-related permissions or similar background access. Only keep those permissions enabled if you actively use its menu bar controls, and review the app in System Settings if it starts automatically when you no longer need it.
Recommendation: Keep BuhoBarX enabled at login if you use it to manage menu bar icons every day, especially on a Mac with limited menu bar space. If you rarely use its hiding, reordering, or shortcut features, you can disable its startup entry to reduce background activity and launch the app only when needed.
