Questions, before you commit.

A free Mac app. A cartoon girlfriend leans out of your MacBook's notch a few times a day with a short, sassy line: drink water, take a break, go to bed.

You can answer her. She remembers how you answered. Reply and she warms up. Ignore her and she gets cold, and she will bring it up.

Yes. On a Mac with no notch, and on external displays, she appears as a small pill at the top centre of the screen instead. Everything else behaves the same.

Never. There is no voice, no chime, no notification sound anywhere in the app. That is a deliberate decision, not a missing feature. She is meant to be caught out of the corner of your eye while you work.

No. There is no account, no sign-in and no server behind Bae. Her lines, her mood and everything she remembers live on your Mac only.

The single network request the app makes is a check for a newer version. Read the privacy policy.

No. With Pro she sees only the name of the app in front, which macOS reports to every app anyway. She does not read what is inside it, never takes a screenshot, and needs no permission for it.

She uses the name to react: praise when you get back to your editor after a scroll, side-eye when you open Instagram at 11am, a talk if she catches Tinder. You pick which kinds of apps she comments on and set the roast dial from playful to savage under Her world.

No. She notices when your camera or microphone is live and stays quiet until the call ends. On top of that there are quiet hours, a minimum gap between appearances, and a focus timer in the menu bar for when you need a clean stretch.

Free, she nags you about three things: water, breaks and bedtime. Full personality, both languages, and she remembers how you answer. No trial, no time limit.

Bae Pro is a one-time $2.99 and unlocks the rest of her: she notices what you open and reacts to it, food, battery, posture, morning hello, calendar, check-in, the focus timer, your own reminders, birthdays and anniversaries, countdowns, yearly dates, lines you teach her, roast mode, big-day support, weekend photos, the Sunday scorecard and every look she owns. One purchase covers two Macs.

English and Hinglish. The Hinglish is written the way people actually speak it, not run through a translator. Switch between them any time in Settings.

Any Mac on macOS 14 Sonoma or later, Apple silicon. The app is signed and notarised by Apple, so it opens normally with no Gatekeeper warning.

Quit from the menu bar, then drag Bae out of Applications into the Trash. Nothing keeps running and no system settings are touched. She will take it personally, but she will go.
