SlapMyMac Slap your MacBook. It screams back.
The viral Mac menu bar app that turns every slap, USB plug and lid creak into a voice reaction. 7 voice packs, 130+ clips, custom sound folders — all hiding in your menu bar.
What is SlapMyMac? The Mac app with feelings
SlapMyMac (a.k.a. Slap My Mac) is a native Mac menu bar app that reads your MacBook's built-in accelerometer and plays a hilarious voice reaction every time you slap it. The harder you slap, the louder it screams. No dock icon, no distraction — just a tiny app hiding in your menu bar with a very big attitude.
Built for Apple Silicon (M1 Pro and newer), optimized for macOS Sonoma and Sequoia. It's the funniest MacBook prank app you can install in under 60 seconds.
- Native SwiftUI menu bar app — no Electron bloat
- Reads the real MacBook accelerometer — not a fake gimmick
- 7 voice packs + custom sound folders from your Mac
- One-time $2 — no subscription, no ads, no tracking
Lid Creak — turn your MacBook hinge into a haunted door New
Open or close your MacBook lid and SlapMyMac plays a creaky wooden door — powered by the built-in lid angle sensor. Dramatic. Unnecessary. Essential.
Requires an M2 Pro or newer MacBook. Some models may not expose lid angle via IOKit.
USB Moaner — your Mac reacts when you plug anything in
Flip on USB Moaner mode and your MacBook reacts every time you plug or unplug a USB‑C device — including your MagSafe or USB‑C charger. Same 7 voice packs, zero slapping required. Perfect for the hot‑swap life.
7 voice packs · 130+ sound clips · your own custom packs
130+ sound clips across 7 built-in voice packs, plus custom packs from your own audio folders. Your open-plan office will have questions.
