## About

Zen Mode is a menu bar utility for avoiding awkward moments during presentations, meetings, and public use. With one click, it can hide desktop icons, hide windows except the frontmost app, hide the Dock, turn on Do Not Disturb, and switch off Wi‑Fi or Bluetooth.

Create unlimited custom modes with manual controls, Raycast integration, Siri Shortcuts support, keyboard shortcut workflows, and deeplinks. Zen Mode runs on macOS Monterey or later and is available as a one-time purchase with lifetime updates.
