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.

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

Stay focused with built-in Pomodoro timers.

Structured focus sessions with breaks and ambient sound. While a session runs, its progress and remaining time appear beside the notch.

See today's events alongside the month view, with your reminders one tab away.

Calendar

Monitor your Mac in real time.

Track CPU, memory, disk, network and battery usage. Indicators change color only when a value needs your attention.
