Try it: Start and Restore work. The screen is drawn in the page; it reads nothing from your Mac.

Nothing private on screen.

Desktop files, chats, the Dock, the clutter in the menu bar: gone before anyone sees them.

Everything back after.

Each change is written down first and undone in reverse. Even after a crash.

One click, or none.

From the menu bar, a hotkey, Siri or a shortcut. It takes a second.

One click in.
One click back.

Before you record, present or share your screen, Recording Mode hides what nobody needs to see. When you’re done, it puts each thing back exactly the way it was.

Choose what goes.
Levers remembers what was there.

Pick the things Recording Mode changes in Settings. Each one is written down before it changes and undone in reverse when you stop. Anything you changed back yourself stays as you left it.

  • A 3 · 2 · 1 countdown before it starts, if you want one
  • A time limit, with fifteen more minutes a click away
  • A red dot and a timer in the menu bar while it’s on

Safe, even if something quits.

A small journal on your Mac holds every change. If Levers or the Mac stops mid-recording, the next launch puts everything back.

A backdrop behind your work.

A color, a gradient, a soft mesh or a picture fills the screen behind the window in front.

Quiet while it runs.

Do Not Disturb on, alert sounds off, the Mac kept awake, until you stop.

Keep the Mac awake.
Let the agent finish.

A long build, a migration, a coding agent working through a task: turn on Keep Awake, pick how long, and walk away. The Mac won’t sleep until it’s done.

The screen can go dark on its own. The Mac stays awake until the timer runs out, or until you say so.

A timer, a time, or no end.

Five minutes to four hours, until midnight or tomorrow morning, or until you turn it off. Two hours to start with.

More time, one click.

The job ran long? +15m, +1h or +4h from the dropdown, or the menu bar’s timer.

Every switch has a timer.

Do Not Disturb for the next hour, Mute Microphone until the call ends. Each switch turns itself off when you say.

A quiet menu bar.

Sort your menu bar icons onto three shelves. The hidden ones come back on a click or a hover; Recording Mode tucks them all away.

Visible · Always in the bar

Hidden · Back on a click or a hover

Always Hidden · Gone until you move them

Click an icon to move it to the next shelf. The bar follows.

Three shelves.

Visible, Hidden and Always Hidden. Drag an icon between them in Settings.

Back on a hover.

Move the pointer to the bar, or click the chevron, and the hidden ones return for a moment.

All gone for a recording.

Recording Mode hides every icon you chose, and brings them back after.

A backdrop behind
the app you show.

A color, a gradient, a soft mesh or a picture, even your own wallpaper blurred, fills the screen behind the window in front. Viewers see your work and nothing else.

Backdrop
In Recording Mode

Try it: pick a look, or turn the switch off.

Fifteen switches.
One click each.

The Mac settings you change every day, in one dropdown, without a trip to System Settings. Every one shown doing its job.

Turn it off later.

Any switch can turn itself off after a while, or tomorrow morning.

A hotkey for each.

Give any switch keys of its own, from any app, and a step in Shortcuts.

Only what you use.

Pick the few the dropdown shows. The rest wait under Show all.

Pay once, keep it forever.

One payment, every update after it, and no subscription. Launch prices, for now.

Using Levers

What does Recording Mode change?

Whatever you pick in Settings › Recording Mode: it can hide desktop icons, other apps, the Dock and your menu bar icons, put a backdrop behind the app in front, turn on Do Not Disturb, keep the Mac awake, mute alert sounds, and switch Dark Mode, Night Shift or True Tone.

Does it really put everything back?

Yes. Levers writes down how each thing was before it changes it, and undoes the changes in reverse when you stop. Only what it changed is touched: anything you changed back yourself in the meantime stays as you left it. If Levers quits or the Mac restarts while Recording Mode is on, the next launch puts everything back.

How do I start it?

Click Start in the dropdown, ⌥-click the Levers icon in the menu bar, press ⌃⌥⌘R in any app, or ask Siri to “Start Recording Mode in Levers”. Recording Mode and every switch are also actions in the Shortcuts app.

Can I choose which switches the dropdown shows?

Yes. In Settings › Switches you put switches on three shelves: always shown, under Show all, and hidden. Drag a switch from one to another.

Your Mac and your data

Which Macs does it run on?

macOS 15 Sequoia or later, on Apple silicon and Intel Macs.

What permissions does it ask for?

Only the ones a switch needs, and only when you first use it: Accessibility to hide chosen menu bar icons and to lock the keyboard, permission to control System Events for the Dock and Dark Mode, and Bluetooth for AirPods. Do Not Disturb works through two shortcuts you add once, because macOS has no other way for an app to set Focus.

Does it collect any data?

No. There is no account and no analytics. Levers goes online only to check your license and for updates; the privacy page lists exactly what those send.

Buying

Is it a subscription?

No. You pay once and keep the license forever, with every future update included.

Is there a free trial?

No, but every purchase has a 14-day refund. If Levers isn’t for you, email us within 14 days and you get your money back, no reason needed.

How many Macs can I use it on?

As many as your plan covers: 1, 3 or 10. One key works on all of them, and you can move it from one Mac to another yourself in Settings › License.

Do I get Levers with Flit Lifetime?

Yes. Flit Lifetime comes with Vitals and Levers, all three apps for one payment; buy it on the pricing page and the three keys arrive in one email. If you already own Flit Lifetime, claim Levers at leversmac.com/flit with your Flit key.

Is there a student or teacher discount?

Yes, half price. Email us from your school or university email, or with a photo of your student or staff card, and a person replies with a one-use code for checkout.

Why is it so cheap?

These are launch prices. After the launch, Levers is $29 a Mac. What you pay now is what you pay, and your updates stay free.

I lost my license key.

Look it up at apps.fore.studio/manage with the email you paid with, and it’s sent to you again.
