GitBar is the macOS menubar app for pull requests. Connect GitHub, GitLab (cloud or self-hosted), and Azure DevOps across any number of accounts, and every PR you care about is one click away. See what's yours, what's waiting on your review, and what's happening across your team. Status badges show approved, draft, conflicts, and checks at a glance. A live PR count lives in your menubar. Built with React Native for macOS. Free on the Mac App Store.
GitBar
Hey Product Hunt!
I built GitBar because I was tired of juggling PRs across GitHub, GitLab, self-hosted GitLab, and Azure. Five browser tabs, a Slack reminder, and I was still missing reviews.
GitBar lives in your menubar. A number tells you how many PRs need you. Click it and you get a list split into three tabs: Mine (PRs you authored), Review (PRs waiting on you), and All.
Key features:
Multi-platform. GitHub, GitLab (cloud and self-hosted), Azure DevOps.
Multi-account. Personal and work, side by side.
Mine / Review / All tabs. With filters you can tune in settings.
Status badges. Approved, draft, conflicts.
CI status on the card. So you know when a PR is ready to review.
Compact view. Fit more PRs on screen when you're juggling many at once.
Hide PRs. Right-click to hide them from Mine & Review.
Live menubar count. Glance, don't click.
GitHub Issues. For the work that isn't code review.
Native notifications, launch at login.
Today I'm shipping 2.0. New Mine / Review / All tabs, redesigned cards and onboarding, new app icon, GitHub Issues, and it's running on React Native's new architecture, so it's noticeably snappier than v1.
Free on the Mac App Store. Would love to hear what's missing.
@tlamars a Huge props for moving to the React Native new architecture You can really feel the difference in 'snappiness' with v2.0. A native menubar tool should be light and fast, and GitBar nails it.
This solves a real pain point. When I was running engineering at a company that grew from 15 to 120 engineers, PR review latency became our silent killer - not because people didn't want to review, but because the notification was buried in a browser tab they forgot about or a Slack channel with 200 unread messages. Having it in the menubar with that Mine/Review/All split is exactly right because the mental model matches how engineers actually think about PRs. The multi-platform support is clutch too - we had teams split across GitHub and self-hosted GitLab and the context-switching between them was brutal.
CI status on the card is the quiet feature in this launch. the loop without it: open browser, check if CI passed, close tab, go back to what you were doing. repeat. having that in the menubar removes a small context-switch that happens more times a day than i'd like to admit
