Sportsbar - Track World Cup 2026 scores in your macOS menu bar

u/nevueJune 11, 2026RedditEnglish
Full contextOriginal content · Reddit

Problem: Keep track of World Cup 2026 ongoing matches in your macOS menu bar, without opening a browser. Features: See tournament timelines, fixtures and standings A large coverage of European football leagues and international tournaments Favorite your teams and only see their matches if preferred Subtle goal animation in menu bar when a live match score changes Comparison: There are free alternatives like Flashscore but I like mine as a native macOS app better. There are apps distrubuted outside mac app store like scorebar.app. There are also generic menu bar apps that can render a browser window there. Pricing: $2.99, Lifetime, Link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sportsbar/id6504444926?mt=12

does this work with MLB or any other sports? Or just soccer?

u/nevueOPReply

just soccer for now, but can be added if you are interested. would require an initial sport list to be enabled.

My app MenuScores supports more leagues if your interested: https://github.com/daniyalmaster693/MenuScores

Ha this is so good - don't know if this is going to help me focus on my work or want to start watching. Will stop me checking my phone every few minutes either way! Would there be a way for users to add future leagues? I would pay another $5 in app if I could then get lifetime feeds of my favourite league. If you can find some free feeds of live scores for the data, could be a good way to extend the life of the app

Hi, we already have quite good coverage of leagues listed at: https://sports.menubarapp.com If you have one that is missing please let me know.

u/OtherTailor5967Reply

u/nevueOPReply

If there is demand other sports can be added. I count your comment as demand 😃

Very cool and timely! So much cleaner as a native application. 👏🏽

u/MembershipEmergency7

looks quite useful，how you know i need this, hhhh

u/Aritra7777

Clean idea. The menu bar is exactly the right place for this -- persistent, glanceable, out of the way. Most sports score apps either need a dedicated window or push notifications that interrupt you. This approach matches the use case: you're working, not watching, but you want to know.

I just saw this recently and downloaded. Great app and great timing

parece incrível, mas apenas para o futebol, nao me agrada tanto. se tivesse opções de tipos de esportes diferentes, jogos eletronicos como CS, LOL, em torneios diferentes, regionais e internacionais, isso certamente teria o meu dinheiro!
