Your MacBook’s closing act.

LidFrost requires macOS 14 or later and a MacBook with a supported lid sensor: a 14-inch or 16-inch MacBook Pro from 2021 onward, a 16-inch MacBook Pro from 2019, or a MacBook Air with M2 or later.

Email hello@lidfrost.com with what happened, your Mac model, and your macOS version. Steps to reproduce the issue are helpful too.

There isn’t a built-in option to hide it yet. If you’d like the icon to stay still, go to Settings → General and turn off “Menu bar icon follows the lid”.

No. LidFrost doesn’t read, capture, or record your screen, and doesn’t need Screen Recording, Accessibility, or Input Monitoring permissions.

Yes. Choose a look, make your changes in Settings → Adjust, then choose “Save as new…” and give it a name. You’ll find it under “Your looks” in Settings → Looks.

One licence works on up to three Macs at a time. To move it to another Mac, open Settings → Licence on an activated Mac and choose “Remove from this Mac” to free a place.

Use the licence recovery page and enter the email address you used at checkout. Your key will be sent to that address. Check your spam folder if it doesn’t arrive.

You can request a full refund within 14 days of your original purchase. Email hello@lidfrost.com with the email address you used at checkout and your order number.

Yes. LidFrost is a one-time purchase, and all future updates are included.

Your licence key appears after checkout and is also sent to you by email. Open Settings → Licence in the app, paste your key, and choose “Activate”.

After that LidFrost folds without the internet. It checks in with our licence server about once a month to confirm the licence, and keeps trying for ten days, so being offline or away for a while doesn’t interrupt it.
