Music and AI agent alerts in your MacBook notch
About Notchware
Notchware transforms the often overlooked notch at the top of MacBook screens into a functional and informative display. Designed for Mac users who want quick access to essential information without cluttering their workspace, it displays Now Playing artwork, playback controls, and system statuses such as battery, volume, brightness, Focus mode, and Wi-Fi directly within the notch area. The app is built with native SwiftUI, ensuring a seamless and responsive experience, and it operates without requiring an account, analytics, or cloud services, prioritizing user privacy. Notchware Pro enhances capabilities with alerts from AI agents like Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor, providing real-time notifications for approvals and task completions directly in the notch, making it ideal for developers and power users who rely on AI tools and terminal workflows.
