Menubar is smaller, you only need an All-in-One switch.
OnlySwitch provides a series of toggle switches to simply your routine work, such as Hiden desktop icons, dark mode and hide ugly notch of new Mackbook Pro. The switches show on your statusbar, you can easily control them. Since Version 1.2, OnlySwitch supports simplified Chinese and German. Since Version 1.7, Shortcuts can be imported in OnlySwitch.

The Hide notch switch only shows on build-in display of M1 Pro/Max Macbook Pro. The switch just controls current desktop, not for all work desktops. Now, the Hide notch switch supports dynamic wallpaper, just the processing takes much longer time.
I use classOfDevice(2360344) to check if a bluetooth device is Airpods Pro, but I'm not sure whether other AirPods modules are also 2360344, since I only have two AriPods Pros. If you are using AirPods 1~3, please tell me what the classOfDevice is. Or I can detect the count of battery value to check if AirPods(when count is 3, it's AirPods), like AirPods Battery Monitor For MAC OS.
Radio Player supports m3u stream since version 1.6, but without sound wave effect. If your Radio Player crashes, please send the crash log and stream url to me.
Low Power Mode uses Terminal commands that require root access, so the app will ask you to enter password on every toggle.
Shortcuts is a powerful iOS app which can help people make fantasitic automation functions. It comes to macOS in Monterey as well. Many users eager OnlySwitch has more customizable features, and one good news is that the app supports Shortcuts display since Version 1.7. More menubar space therefore is saved. In the next versions, OnlySwitch will also provide some Shortcuts actions to impove user experience.
I found I can't run the preview of SwiftUI by Xcode 13.2.1 on my M1 Pro Macbook. It'll show an error like this https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/697037. Meanwhile, the OnlySwitch status bar icon will be missing, including old version app. However it's normal that I run it on my i7 Macbook. I'm not sure whether this is a bug of Xcode. The current workaround is installing back to Xcode 13.2.
