Requires Zappl 2.3.0+

Menu Bar App · AppBar

Self-service patching,
right in the menu bar.

AppBar is Zappl's menu bar companion — giving every user one-click updates and installs across 1,100+ approved apps. No admin credentials, no password prompts, no tickets.

  • One-click updates — no admin password, no helpdesk ticket
  • A curated in-house app store of company-approved software
  • Your branding, your rules — driven by a single config profile

Self-service updates

Every update, one click away.

When an update is cached and ready, AppBar surfaces it instantly — and the user installs it themselves, with no admin rights and no password prompt. Silent background updates from Zappl show up too, so people can see their Mac staying compliant.

  • No admin credentials, ever — installs run via the signed Zappl helper
  • Update All, or pick apps one at a time
  • A rolling 7-day activity log shows every update & install — including silent ones

In-house app store

A curated store of approved apps.

Switch on the Installs tab to give users a self-service catalog — drawn from Zappl's 1,100+ supported apps and curated to exactly what your organisation approves. They browse, search and install; you stay in control.

  • Allow- and exclude-lists curate the catalog per company policy
  • Custom categories & descriptions for every app
  • Disabled by default — nothing installs until you say so

Make it yours

Your name above the door.

AppBar wears your brand, not ours. Drop in your company logo, set the title, menu-bar icon and accent colour — even custom notification branding — all from a single configuration profile. On macOS 26 it picks up the new Liquid Glass look automatically.

  • Add your company logo — light & dark variants
  • Brand accent colour drives every button and highlight
  • Branded macOS notifications · Liquid Glass on macOS 26
