This app lets you turn the MacBook Pro’s glowing Apple logo into a music visualizer.

Backglow is a free macOS app giving you control over the brightness of the new touchscreen MBP’s glowing logo. You can also turn it off, make it breathe, or use it as a battery meter that dims as the laptop’s charge drops. The $15 pro version (temporarily discounted to $9 at launch) makes the logo pulse along with music you’re listening to, or turns it into a status light for Claude Code.
