Does it work on a Mac without a notch?

Yes. Turn on the simulated notch in Settings and Notch Plus draws one at the top of the screen, so it works the same on a MacBook Air without a notch, an iMac, or an external display.

Where does my data go?

Nowhere. Clipboard history, notes, screen time, shelf files and image conversions all stay on your Mac. The only things that reach the internet are the services you connect yourself — your payment provider and your analytics — and those are queried directly.

Is it safe to connect Stripe?

Notch Plus asks for a restricted key with read access to balance transactions only. It can read what you have earned and nothing else — it cannot move money, refund, or change anything on your account.

Hover the notch. There is an adjustable delay so a passing cursor doesn't trigger it, and you can switch hover-to-open off entirely if you would rather click.

Will it get in the way when I'm presenting or watching something?

It hides itself while an app is fullscreen by default, and the collapsed state is only as tall as the notch you already have. Plus, when using the built-in Prompter during video calls, it is 100% invisible to Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and screen recordings.

Do I have to use all of them?

No — every one of the 22 tools is a switch. Turn off what you don't use and it disappears from the panel entirely.

Yes. Email us within 14 days of buying and we'll refund it, no explanation needed. Refunding revokes your license key, so Notch Plus stops unlocking on every Mac it was activated on.

Is it a subscription?

No. One payment, lifetime access, updates included. There is no account to create and nothing to renew.

Dynamic Island for Mac

Dynamic Island-style experience for your MacBook

Apple's Dynamic Island lives on iPhone. But your MacBook already has a physical notch — and Notch Plus turns it into a Dynamic Island-inspired utility: live activities, productivity tools, and quick-access widgets, all inside the camera bump at the top of your screen.

What makes it Dynamic Island-inspired

The notch expands, just like Dynamic Island

Hover the notch and it smoothly expands downward to reveal your tools. Click away or press Escape to collapse it back to the slim pill shape.

Live activities in the collapsed notch

The Message tool lets you display scrolling text in the collapsed notch — your goal for the day, a motivational quote, or a live status — similar to how Dynamic Island shows ongoing activities.

22 tools, not just notifications

Where Dynamic Island on iPhone shows call timers and music controls, Notch Plus goes further: revenue dashboards, clipboard manager, system monitor, Pomodoro timer, ambient sounds, and 17 more tools.

Works on MacBook Pro and MacBook Air

The MacBook Pro notch and the newer MacBook Air notch are both supported. Enable the simulated notch for iMac and external displays too.

Important note

Notch Plus is not affiliated with Apple and is not Apple's Dynamic Island product. Dynamic Island is a registered feature of Apple Inc. on iPhone. Notch Plus is an independently developed MacBook notch app inspired by the concept of making the camera cutout useful.
