The menu bar is positioned at the top of the screen to make it closer to other navigation controls, enhancing ease of access. This design choice also allows the menu bar to share space with the top bar, thereby maximizing the visibility of the app's content. This approach is consistent across devices, ensuring a uniform navigation experience whether on an iPhone or iPad.
