The menu bar
Resurf keeps an icon in the Mac menu bar, so you can capture and search with the window closed.
- Open
- Resurf icon in the menu bar

Close or quit
Closing the window, with the red button or ⌘W, only hides it. Resurf keeps running in the menu bar, and its shortcuts, capture widget and Quick Search keep working. Choose Open app to bring the window back.
⌘Q, or Quit Resurf, quits fully: the global shortcuts stop and the icon goes away.
Inbox count
The number beside the icon is how many captures are in the Inbox. Later isn't counted, and an empty Inbox shows nothing.
Change it in Settings → General → Inbox badge: Menu bar is on by default, and Dock icon adds the count to the Dock. macOS asks you to allow badges the first time you turn that on.
Start at login
Start at login is in Settings → General → Startup & sounds, and it's turned on when you finish setup. Resurf then starts in the menu bar with no window and no Dock icon. Choose Open app from the menu bar icon to bring them back.
