About CommuteBar

CommuteBar is a menu bar tool for Mac that shows estimated arrival times. Add multiple destinations such as home, work, school, and the gym, then switch quickly or automatically on a schedule; when driving, you can avoid tolls or highways and switch when a faster route appears. Set weekly commute time windows and it will tell you when to leave. Apple Maps runs locally on your Mac, so the service provider cannot see your location. The official page requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
