What Changed
- Closing the main window leaves LidLock running in the menu bar.
- Open LidLock brings the window back from the menu bar.
- Quit LidLock remains the explicit way to exit and run quit-time cleanup.
- Hovering over the menu-bar icon shows the current sleep-protection status.
Requirements
- macOS 13 Ventura or newer.
- A MacBook for lid-close workflows. Other Macs can still use keep-awake and
display controls.
Privacy
LidLock has no accounts, analytics, telemetry, advertising, or automatic network
access during normal operation. The optional helper is local to your Mac and is
used only for LidLock's lid-close sleep setting.
