Keep your buddy happy.

Install

1. Download the signed Hangbuddy DMG.
2. Open it and drag Hangbuddy to Applications.
3. Open Hangbuddy from Applications. It appears in the menu bar rather than the Dock.
4. Complete the short onboarding. Automatic update checks are on; diagnostics remain off unless you opt in.

Everyday controls

Use the menu-bar buddy to open Settings, switch companions, hide or show the overlay, and check for updates. Press Option–Space anywhere to hide or show. If another app owns that shortcut, Settings reports “Shortcut unavailable” and the menu command remains available.

Troubleshooting

If the buddy is missing after a display change, open Settings and select an available display. Hangbuddy falls back to the main display automatically. For a support report, choose Settings → Export Diagnostics and attach the JSON file to an email you initiate.

Uninstall

1. Turn off Launch at Login in Settings.
2. Quit Hangbuddy from its menu-bar menu.
3. Move Hangbuddy from Applications to the Trash.
4. Optional: remove Hangbuddy’s preferences from ~/Library/Preferences/com.prayagchhabra.Hangbuddy.plist and its cache folder from ~/Library/Caches/com.prayagchhabra.Hangbuddy.
