Summary
Focused on stabilizing and polishing the app’s menu bar experience, incorporating feedback to improve both behavior and visuals. Established a new habit to relaunch the app automatically after each build to validate changes immediately.
Details
Today’s work centered on addressing frustrations around the menu bar functionality. I iterated repeatedly on the design to make it clearer and more visually consistent, and added proper targets to ensure the menu bar interactions behave as expected. Each tweak was followed by a relaunch to confirm that the fixes held up in a real run, which helped catch issues early and tighten the loop.
Beyond the UI tweaks, I adjusted my workflow to always relaunch after modifications without prompting, reducing back-and-forth and making testing more reliable. The result is a more dependable menu bar flow and a cleaner presentation overall.
Next
- Re-evaluate the menu bar UX with fresh eyes and test a few edge cases.
- Check for any lingering interaction gaps or visual inconsistencies.
- Continue the relaunch-after-build workflow as the default while iterating.
