The practical difference
Mac App Store utilities have different distribution constraints. Tuck is a notarized direct-download app, which lets it focus on advanced menu bar control while keeping the install flow simple.
Choose Tuck if
- You want a free core mode with no time limit.
- You use a notched MacBook and want Shelf Mode.
- You prefer one-time pricing over another subscription.
- You want no analytics or telemetry in a local utility.
