I have had to re-start BTT several times during the day. It happens when the computer display goes to sleep for an extended period of time. I am not sure how long is long enough. But during a normal workday, I have may go to the Menu Bar to Restart Better Touch Tool 3 to 4 times. I am running the current version of Mojave (10.14) on a 2018 15" MacBook Pro with the 2.9 ghz Core I9 and 32 GB of Ram.

you probably mean the Touch Bar functionality? If so that's tracked here: [After sleep, global touchbar widgets are not visible](https://community.folivora.ai/t/after-sleep-global-touchbar-widgets-are-not-visible/2593)

Andreas: actually the BTT is not running in the Touch Bar. I have to go to menu bar and restart it. Does that make sense?

Yep, have a look at the other thread. I'm still trying to figure out what causes this on some sytems but hope to have a solution soon. Let's continue in the other thread!
