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.

Why Notch Plus

22 tools in one notch

Revenue, analytics, clipboard manager, Pomodoro timer, system monitor, notes, file converter, stocks, ambient sounds — and more. Every tool is individually toggleable.

Always one hover away

Hover the notch to open. Adjustable delay so a passing cursor never triggers it accidentally. Click to expand, Escape or click outside to collapse.

100% native macOS app

Built in Swift with AppKit. Runs natively on Apple Silicon and Intel. Near-zero CPU overhead, even with all 22 tools enabled.

Private by default

Clipboard history, notes, files, and screen time data never leave your Mac. Revenue and analytics are fetched directly from your own provider accounts.

Invisible when you need it

The app hides automatically in fullscreen. The collapsed notch is only as tall as the camera bump. The Prompter tool is invisible to Zoom, Google Meet, and screen recordings.

Works without a notch too

Enable the simulated notch in Settings and Notch Plus works on a MacBook Air without a notch, an iMac, or any external display.

Popular tools in the notch

Each tool has a dedicated page with full details on features and Mac-specific use cases.
