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.
Hide the mess before
you share your screen.
Install it and forget it. The moment you share or record your screen, Levers hides your desktop, Dock, other apps and menu bar clutter. When you stop, everything comes back.

01How it works
Set it up once.
Then forget it.
No button to remember before a call. Levers notices when your screen is shared or recorded, and gets there first.
- 01
Open it once.
Download it, drag it to Applications and open it. It sits in your menu bar from then on.
- 02
Share or record your screen.
The moment a call or a recorder starts, your desktop, Dock, other apps and menu bar clutter are gone.
- 03
Stop, and it’s all back.
Each thing returns exactly as it was, even after a crash. Prefer to start it yourself? One click.
02Works everywhere
Works with the apps
you already use.
No setup and no plugins. Whatever app shares or records your screen, Levers notices, and the app you’re showing stays put. Meet and Teams in a browser, OBS and Loom too.
03Recording Mode
Starts when you share.
Stops when you do.
When a call, a recorder or any other app starts capturing your screen, Recording Mode hides what nobody needs to see. When it stops, each thing goes 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 resolution made for recording, like 1920 × 1080, if you want one
- 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 quits or the Mac restarts mid-recording, everything is put back the next time Levers opens.
Your recorder stays.
Screen Studio, Zoom or Loom stay on screen, and so does the app you were in.
Quiet while it runs.
Do Not Disturb on, alert sounds off, the Mac kept awake, until you stop.
Ways it starts

A backdrop behind
A quiet menu bar.
Three shelves.
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.
Keep the Mac awake.
Until the job is done.
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.

A timer, a time, or no end.

More time, one click.
The job ran long? +15m, +1h or +4h from the dropdown, or the menu bar’s timer.
Sleeps as usual after.
Turn Keep Awake off, or let the timer run out, and the Mac sleeps again.

Ask AI ChatGPT Claude Perplexity Grok
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, switch Dark Mode, Night Shift or True Tone, and set the screen to a resolution made for recording.
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.
Does it start by itself?
Yes. When a call, a recorder or any other app starts capturing your screen, such as Zoom, Meet, Teams, Screen Studio or QuickTime, Recording Mode starts, and when the capture ends, everything goes back. A screenshot doesn’t start it. Started by hand, it stays on until you stop it. You can turn this off in Settings › Recording Mode.
How do I start it myself?
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.
