The set list

Less display management.
More flow.

DisplayJazz puts the controls you actually reach for into one compact, native menu.

01

Control every screen individually

See connected and remembered displays, switch each one on or off, and check its status and resolution at a glance.

02

Tune brightness

Adjust supported built-in and external monitors from the same menu.

03
⌃⌘\

Your display panic button

Turn all recoverable displays back on instantly—even with a global keyboard shortcut.

04

Keep the session alive

Caffeinate prevents display and idle system sleep while you present, render, or stay on call.

05

Remember to look away

Set a 5–60 minute eye-rest interval and your own reminder. A gentle overlay appears on the active screen, then dismisses itself.

Built for the menu bar

From desk chaos to one clean control surface.

No sprawling dashboard. No recurring configuration ritual. DisplayJazz watches your setup and stays one click away.

  1. 01

    Open

    Click DJ in the menu bar to see the current state of every screen.

  2. 02

    Conduct

    Switch displays, adjust brightness, or enable Caffeinate without leaving your work.

  3. 03

    Let it restore

    Restore Mode safely brings the built-in display back when the last external disappears, while respecting clamshell mode.

Made for real desks

Small enough to disappear.
Useful enough to keep.

A note on compatibility. Display switching and some brightness controls rely on private macOS display APIs and DDC support. Behavior can vary by Mac, monitor, cable, dock, and macOS release. DisplayJazz is distributed directly and is not available on the Mac App Store.
