A free menu-bar countdown and one-click meeting join — currently unreachable; its site and App Store listing are both down.
Our take
A long-standing free staple for the join-the-call-fast job, from before the notch was a design surface — but it doesn’t check out anymore, so it’s marked discontinued rather than left looking installable.

The deal
Worth knowing: Originally built by Lenni Soenke and Patrice Becker (per their own 2020 Product Hunt launch comments) and later operated by Bardeen Inc., the developer attributed here since that’s the identity on the last live version of the site. Verified August 27, 2026 and independently re-confirmed August 28, 2026 — both known channels are still dead on both checks: trymeeter.com returns a CloudFront 502 error on repeated checks, and the Mac App Store listing it pointed to (“Meeter – Fast Call Initiation,” id 1510445899) is delisted — apps.apple.com returns 404 directly, and Apple’s search API returns zero results for it across every storefront checked (US, DE, GB). The last live snapshot of the site (Internet Archive, Nov 13, 2025) was already promoting Bardeen’s separate workflow-automation product ahead of Meeter itself, a sign it was being wound down rather than actively developed. Kept as a listing rather than deleted, since it’s still cited around the web as a free pick from its active years (9to5Mac, MacRumors, Macworld) — but there is currently no working link to install it.
