Available the moment you need it.

HyperNotch expands from the notch when you hover over it, much like Dynamic Island on iPhone, and collapses when you move away.

Control playback from any app.

View artwork, scrub through tracks and control playback for Apple Music, Spotify and other media apps without switching windows. While music plays, album art and a live equalizer appear beside the closed notch.

Now Playing

Stage files and share them instantly.

Drag files onto the notch to keep them within reach while you work, or drop them on AirDrop to send them to a nearby device.

File Shelf with AirDrop

A clipboard that reads your screenshots.

Search finds words inside copied images, and API keys and tokens are masked and deleted after five minutes. Press ⌘1 to ⌘9 to paste, select several clips to paste together, or save text you reuse as a snippet.

Check yourself before the call.

Mirror shows a live camera preview from the notch, so you can fix your framing in a second. Flip the image, or expand it for a larger view. The camera runs only while the tab is open.

Read your script right under the camera.

The Teleprompter scrolls large text beneath the notch, so you look at the lens while you read. Set the speed, jump back ten seconds, or restart from the top.

Frequently asked questions

Which Macs are supported?

HyperNotch requires macOS 26 Tahoe or later and is designed for the notch on MacBook Air and MacBook Pro displays.

What permissions does HyperNotch need?

Only what a feature uses, and only when you first use it. Grab Text and Screenshot ask for Screen Recording, and Calendar and Reminders ask for access to your events and reminders.

What does Clipboard do with passwords and API keys?

Passwords from password managers are never saved. API keys, tokens and .env secrets copied from other apps are detected, masked in the list and left out of search. By default they delete themselves after 5 minutes, and you can choose to never save them or to keep them. Text in copied images is read on your Mac and nothing is uploaded.

How do I open HyperNotch?

Hover over the notch or click it, depending on your preference. When music or a timer is showing beside the notch, hovering either side opens it too. You can also assign a keyboard shortcut, and dragging a file onto the notch opens the File Shelf.

Can I customize which tools appear?

Yes. In Settings, you can enable or disable each tool and change their order. The first tools appear beside the notch, and the rest are one click away.

How does licensing work?

After purchase, you'll receive a license key by email. Enter it in Settings to activate HyperNotch on up to 3 Macs. You can deactivate a Mac at any time to transfer the license.

What is your refund policy?

If HyperNotch isn't right for you, contact us within 7 days of purchase for a full refund.
