I watch a lot of football, and during a tournament I'd have a browser tab open all day just to glance at scores between meetings. It bugged me. I wanted the score to just be there, in the corner of my screen, the way the clock is.
So I built Bola Bar. It lives in your Mac menu bar and shows the live score the second a match kicks off, or a countdown to the next game when nothing's on. Left-click opens the full schedule, right-click is settings, and that's genuinely the whole app. No dock icon, no notifications, nothing to manage.
Three things I'm proud of:
It's truly quiet. It does one job and gets out of your way.
"Hide live scores" mode, so I can avoid spoilers when I'm watching a match a few hours late.
Pay once at $2.99. No subscription, no accounts, no ads, no tracking.
I'm a solo founder and I build everything myself, so I'd genuinely love to hear what you think. What would make this the score-watcher you'd keep in your menu bar all summer? ⚽
