Menu Drop: Send files via AirDrop straight from your Mac menu bar

Sindre Sorhus, the prolific macOS developer, has released a new app called Menu Drop that streamlines AirDrop transfers. Instead of opening a Finder window and using the sidebar, Menu Drop provides a menu-bar interface to send files and links quickly and with fewer clicks.

Why it matters:

• Send files & links without opening Finder windows or navigating the sidebar.
• Reduces steps and clicks for users who frequently use AirDrop.
• Lightweight, focused utility that fills a common macOS workflow gap.

How it works: after installing Menu Drop, you can use a menu-bar icon to drop files or links and select an AirDrop recipient directly — removing the extra Finder detours many users find tedious.
