NotchNook turns your MacBook notch into an interactive space for the things you reach for all day: music controls, your calendar, notes, tasks, timers and a file tray. Open it from the notch whenever you need it, and it stays out of the way when you don't.

NotchNook is back. Version 1.6.5 is the current official release, signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple, and runs on current macOS, including macOS 26 Tahoe.
