What is EdgeBar

EdgeBar is a macOS menu bar utility that turns the edges of a MacBook trackpad into volume and brightness controls. Sliding the right edge adjusts volume and the left edge adjusts brightness, with haptic feedback and the standard on-screen display. It also supports muting via a double-tap on the top-right corner and skipping tracks with a bottom-edge swipe. The app runs in the menu bar with minimal CPU usage and is offered as a one-time purchase with lifetime updates.
