I have not tried Big Sur myself. Did you get a crash report trying to open it?

Hey I am using Big Sur since Dev Beta1 and Monitorcontrol works fine for me. I have upgraded from Catalina though and the app was carried over from the Catalina installation.

Hmm, so I definitely did not carry over the install since I downloaded it through Big Sur. This could probably be it. My install of Big Sur is FUBAR at the moment so I could try a fresh Catalina and see it if carried over for me. Will report back with my findings.

@waydabber what are the processor and double arrow icons you have there?

@sn0wyfall The processor icon is the standard MacOS icon for eGPUs. The double belong to the Mac Media Key Forwareder app.

@waydabber That's awesome, thank you!

How has Big Sur been for people who are running it? Any issues with MonitorControl? I'm thinking about upgrading myself soon.

Works perfectly! I am using the latest dev beta.

Running Big Sur myself now, seems to work well too, I'll close this for now.
