Frequently asked questions

What services are supported?
Nazar ships with a catalog of 1,600+ services covering developer tools, cloud hosting, databases, productivity apps, monitoring, payments, and more. It supports any service that uses an Atlassian Statuspage, the incident.io equivalent, or publishes an RSS/Atom status feed.
Is it really free?
Yes. Nazar is free and source-available under the Functional Source License (FSL 1.1). No subscriptions, no premium tiers, no telemetry. The source is on GitHub, and the license converts to Apache 2.0 after two years.
Does it work offline?
Nazar needs an internet connection to poll status pages. If your connection drops, it retains the last known status for each service, shows an offline indicator in the dashboard footer, and resumes polling automatically when you're back online.
How often does it check?
The default poll interval is 60 seconds per service, configurable per-service from 30 seconds to 15 minutes. When a status page stops responding, Nazar automatically backs off so it doesn't hammer services that are already struggling.
Does it support light and dark mode?
Yes — Nazar follows your macOS appearance automatically. When you switch between Light and Dark modes in System Settings, the menu bar icon, dashboard panel, and status badges all adapt with accessible contrast in both themes.
Can I add custom services?
Yes. Beyond the built-in catalog, you can add any service by pointing Nazar at its Atlassian Statuspage URL or RSS/Atom feed. Proprietary status page formats (custom HTML, JavaScript-rendered pages) aren't supported yet.
Is my data private?
Completely. Nazar runs in the macOS App Sandbox with only outbound network access. It polls public status pages directly — no proxy server, no telemetry, no analytics. Your list of monitored services stays on your Mac.

Stop guessing what broke.

Let Nazar watch the services you depend on while you get back to work.
