Meet NotchOS 👋
Your MacBook notch, with a little more to do.
I built NotchOS to turn the notch into a live space that expands when there’s something to show—and gets out of your way when there isn’t.
🎵 Now Playing
Hover for music controls.
⏱ Timers + Pomodoro
Focus sounds and binaural beats included.
🎧 AirPods battery
See the charge when your AirPods connect.
📂 File tray + AirDrop
Drag files to the notch to keep them handy and share them.
💡 New: Screen-edge light
A soft glow for video calls, with HDR support on XDR displays.
One system. Not a pile of widgets.
Like Dynamic Island, NotchOS decides what to show when several things happen at once.

I’m building NotchOS solo and shaping it around what people ask for.
What should the notch do next?
