I saw some people complain about the notch (I like it but tastes differ), so I made a little utility that makes the menu bar black so the Notch fades away in the background. The app takes your wallpaper and modifies it to add a black bar at the top.
@richard_f_zhang@jordi_bruin Well done, then. I was originally going to post a sarcastic post along the lines of "took you long enough" but, seriously, just well done.
Saw a comment last night on reddit, and had most of the code already done from another project so I spent a few hours to make a small app to hide the Notch for the people that don't like the extra pixels on their new MacBooks!
Forehead also allows you to round all the corners of your MacBook, similar to the top corners on the new MacBook Pro.
Updates coming later include adding a Notch to older Macs (because why not).
Let me know if you run into anything, as I'm sure there's some bugs left. I'll be uploading the source code later today as well after I've cleaned it up. That way you can build it yourself with Xcode.
Would it be possible to make the menu bar smaller now, so it will end up being in-line with the notch? (would make sense now that it's "hidden")
Report
This does not work in Monterey 12.0.1. It reverts back to the same wallpaper whatever I choose, it stops reacting to any input, reload wallpaper doesn't work. Want my money back, but can only contact the author on twitter, which I don't use. Waste of money.
@henrik_dahl Hi! I just refunded your purchase and I'll be adding my email to my product pages as well. Can you send me an email at jordi@goodsnooze.com so I can try to figure out what's going wrong? Thanks, Jordi

Love the look and it's easy to use. Could use a "Launch at Login" and "Minimize to Menu Bar" options. Not that I reboot much, but it would be a nice touch.
Didn't work correctly, no way to turn it off or uninstall, no customer support, system must be re-installed to eliminate it. Level 2 AppleCare confirms these problems.
