Description
Hi
I've tried to install WritingTool app a few months ago. After a few days it stopped working. Since you have published a few updates, I've tried a clean install with your last version: 6.1 . Unfortunately nothing happens when I launch the app (except I can see it is working in the activity monitor):
Description:
Environment:
- macOS: 26.3.1
- WritingTools: 6.1 (latest Mac release)
- Chip: M4
- Language: French
Symptoms:
- ✅ Process runs in Activity Monitor ("WritingTools")
- ✅ Listed & enabled in System Settings → Desktop & Dock → Menu Bar
- ✅ Accessibility permissions granted (removed/re-added + Mac restart)
- ✅ Multiple clean reinstalls (app deleted)
- ❌ No menu bar icon visible anywhere
- ❌ Ctrl+Space does nothing on selected text (tested in Notes/Pages) and I have no access to preferences in order to change this keyboard shortcut/hotkey.
- ❌ ZERO Console.app logs for "WritingTools" or "JayTea" during tests
Question: Is mac v6.1 compatible with macOS 26.3.1? Any known menu bar issues with macOS 26?
Thanks in advance for your help .
