I use BTT only for my touchbar. It basically replaces the apple standard touchbar with some simple command buttons.

Problem 1: When i press those buttons, BTT will quit randomly. Doesnt matter what button i press. Sometimes it exits after pressing just one button. sometimes it'll exit after i press 10 times on those buttons.

Attached a video to show what happens. [https://photos.app.goo.gl/yYsJ6xQUqYdo7trV7](https://photos.app.goo.gl/yYsJ6xQUqYdo7trV7)

Problem 2: Sometimes, instead of BTT quitting, I'll just see a horizontal dotted line across my touchbar (and only the "x" circle on the far left remains. rest of the BTT configured buttons gone and replaced by the horizontal line). Dont have a video of this yet, but will try to get one.

Help please.

Thanks.

Does anyone know where I can support for this? I've got a fully licensed product but can't use it properly.

Unfortunately I haven't seen such an issue before. However there have been various Touch Bar fixes and improvements during the last two weeks, possibly try upgrading to 3.167
