Hey Product Hunt! š
I'm Anvith, creator of ApexNotch.
Modern MacBooks have had the camera notch for years, but it's mostly just wasted black screen space. I wanted to build something that transforms the notch into a true native Dynamic Island productivity command center ā without bloated Electron webviews or battery drain.
What makes ApexNotch different:
ā¢ Notch Mascot Pets: Pick a companion (Cat, Dog, Fox, Otter, Rabbit) that runs along your notch at a speed reactive in real-time to your laptop's CPU performance.
ā¢ Quick File Shelf: Drag & drop files straight to the notch to hold them between workspaces and drop them anywhere.
ā¢ Dynamic Music Visualizer: Real-time bouncing waveforms & album art for Apple Music and Spotify.
ā¢ Smart Clipboard: Auto-detects and redacts sensitive API keys and tokens (OpenAI, GitHub, AWS).
ā¢ 11-in-1 Dashboard: Pomodoro timer, CPU/Memory/Network sparklines, World Clocks, and Quick Notes.
Pure Native Architecture: Built with 100% pure Swift 6 & SwiftUI. It sits at only ~3.5 MB, runs at less than 0.5% idle CPU, and has zero external cloud tracking or telemetry.
It is completely free and open source (MIT). You can grab the DMG from GitHub Releases: https://github.com/Anvithgopa/Ap...
I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and what widgets or pets you'd like to see next!
