HazeOver — ตัวลดสิ่งรบกวนสำหรับ Mac

• Improved compatibility with macOS Tahoe and updated look for Liquid Glass.
• Fixed: quitting unexpectedly when using a third-party menu bar manager.
• Improved screen reader support and keyboard navigation following Voluntary Product Accessibility Template® audit.

Now you can adjust HazeOver settings from Spotlight and Control Center. See the updated Automation Guide.

Tip: If you use intense dimming and the menu bar gets too dark on macOS Tahoe, then go to System Settings > Menu Bar and enable the “Show menu bar background” option.

The app switcher for the Touch Bar got updated for macOS Tahoe and Liquid Glass. Now requires macOS 12, the last macOS version supported by every Mac with a Touch Bar.

The app for running scripts and commands with keyboard shortcuts or from the menu bar, now updated for macOS Tahoe and Liquid Glass.

“What HazeOver does is highlight the active window by dimming all background windows. That’s it. But it does this simple task with aplomb, and it makes a significant difference in the day-to-day usability of MacOS. Not just MacOS 26 Tahoe — all recent versions of MacOS suffer from a design that makes it difficult to distinguish, instantly, the frontmost (a.k.a. key) window from background windows. Making all background windows a little dimmer makes a notable difference.”

I like working with different languages. I speak English, Russian and Spanish, a bit of Japanese and can understand some German. Localizing an app is challenging but rewarding. That’s why HazeOver has supported multiple languages from the get go.

Over the years HazeOver has been localized into 33 languages with help from professional translators and regular users. But as changes are made and features are added, some text became out of date. Now the localization should be complete, including updates to the home and help pages in 24 languages.

Please let me know if you find mistakes or typos.

• Snap Screenshots Like a Pro — Highlight the important window

“HazeOver dims all but the top window to help you focus while working. Use it for a professional look when making screen captures and recordings.”

Set up a Focus Filter to toggle HazeOver dimming or set its intensity and color automatically depending on which Focus mode you have activated. For example, you could have dimming turned on when switching to a Work focus or get it set to a particular color when studying.

Read the Automation Guide for details and inspiration.

Control HazeOver dimming state and settings with Shortcuts app on macOS Monterey. Combine with other apps and settings to set up your perfect environment. For example, you can enable HazeOver, turn on Dark Mode and Do Not Disturb with a single keyboard shortcut. On all macOS versions you can use AppleScript.

New: Dynamic settings for Light and Dark system appearance.

Dimming settings can be set to change automatically when using Auto Appearance on macOS Catalina (System Preferences > General). For example, enable dimming when turning on Dark Mode. Or have different dimming intensity and color when in Light mode.

Such settings will be saved and applied independently for Dark and Light appearance. See HazeOver Preferences > Advanced > Dark Mode Settings.
