Your notch can do more

Dynamic Island for your Mac

Notcher is a native macOS app that turns the unused MacBook notch into a Dynamic Island. Hover the notch and music controls, a focus timer, a file shelf, your clipboard history, weather and more slide out — coming soon to the Mac App Store for a one-time EUR 1.99, for macOS 15 and newer.

What Notcher does

  • Music. Artwork, playback and precise scrubbing for Spotify and Apple Music, with an optional title reveal when a track actually changes.
  • Focus. A timer with 5, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minute presets.
  • Shelf. Park files for a moment and pass them on via AirDrop.
  • Clipboard history. Opened deliberately with ⌃ V, ten filters, favourites, stored locally and permanently until you delete it.
  • Weather. Optional hourly forecasts from MET Norway.
  • Camera mirror. A live mirrored view — no recording, no microphone.
  • Menu bar apps. Off by default, moved into the notch only by you.

Privacy

Notes, workspaces, clipboard history and pinned snippets stay on your Mac. Network access happens only for features you switch on, such as weather or cover art. There is no analytics and no cookie banner. An account is optional and only used for cloud sync, which is off by default. Full detail on the features page.

Security

Notcher is distributed only through the Mac App Store and goes through Apple review before release (release is being prepared). You never need to disable macOS security features. Prefer to look first? The German home page has an interactive browser preview of the real interface.
