CLUSTER BAR-MACOS-MENU-6 · 21 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-16

macOS menu bar screen capture apps

This cluster consists of macOS menu bar utilities for screen capture and recording, including MP4 recording of full screen/window/region, annotated screenshots, pause/resume, webcam overlay, system audio, scrolling screenshots, and in-place editing. The dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from, as only 0 dated entries exist for the pre-index months. Based on activity signal, floatcam leads with 1 star, followed by blink-eyes and earshot with 0 stars each.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
