RoostBAR
macOS
RoostBAR lives in your Mac's menu bar, tucked away until you need it. It's PiP on your own terms.
Do it, close your browser, RoostBAR will still be with you.
Coming to Mac App Store

Your streaming life, out of the way.

RoostBAR hangs out in your menu bar. No Dock icon to remember, no browser page to lose track of.

Click the menu-bar icon and pick a service and a compact player window sits magnetized to the menu bar and the to each other.

Out of the way but always in view.

Shoot, you want more than one site open? RoostBAR allows for two window panels to be open at the same time. Move them around, resize at will; and when you have everything to your liking: save that layout and when you come back RoostBAR will put it all back

RoostBAR is its own process-not a browser, not a PiP tenant. Your stream belongs to you.

Not seeing a site you want, just add it to the list.

Window specific controls for muting sound, or hiding the video if all you want is the sound. RoostBAR even allows for you to drop the opacity so you can see underneath. Whatever your workflow RoostBAR has your back

Every control you need, nothing you don't.
