Touch Bar Simulator
A standalone macOS app that simulates the Touch Bar without requiring Xcode, with added features like screenshots and transparency control.
What is Touch Bar Simulator?
Touch Bar Simulator is a macOS application that enables users to simulate and interact with the Touch Bar interface on Macs without a physical Touch Bar. It works as a standalone tool, eliminating the need for Xcode, and includes extra features like screenshot capture and transparency adjustment. The project is discontinued as it no longer functions due to changes in macOS.
Mac developers and users who want to test or use Touch Bar features without a physical Touch Bar or without installing Xcode, particularly those interested in UI simulation and accessibility tools.
Developers choose Touch Bar Simulator for its convenience and added functionality over Apple's built-in simulator, such as menu bar access, screenshot capabilities, and no Xcode dependency, though it uses private APIs and is no longer updated.
