How to add Google to your macOS menu bar

1
Download Beaconly
Download Beaconly free from the Mac App Store. It lives in your menu bar — no dock icon, no clutter.
2
Open the Extension Library
Click the Beaconly icon in your menu bar and open the Extension Library. Search for “Google”.
3
Install the Google extension
Click Install and sign in to Google when prompted. Beaconly asks for read-only access — it can see your data, never change it.
4
Arrange your menu bar
Pick which Google extensions to show and drag to reorder. Your Google data is now one click away, always up to date.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Google integration free? +

Yes. Beaconly's free plan includes up to 4 extensions. The Pro plan unlocks unlimited extensions for $0.99/month.

What permissions does Beaconly need for Google? +

Read-only access via Google's official sign-in (OAuth). Beaconly can display your data but never modify it, and your data stays on your Mac — nothing is sent to our servers.

Which Google extensions are available? +

There are currently 2 Google extensions, and new ones ship regularly. You can also build your own with custom extensions.

Does the data update in real time? +

Yes — extensions refresh automatically in the background, so your menu bar always shows current data without opening a browser tab.
