Download NotchFlow-0.2.0.zip, unzip, and drag NotchFlow to Applications. It's signed with a
Developer ID and notarized by Apple, so it opens without warnings.

Requires macOS 14.6 or later; runs natively on Apple silicon and Intel. NotchFlow lives at the top of your
screen and in the menu bar (no Dock icon). Hover the notch or press ⌃⌥Space.

What's new since 0.1.0

  • Drop anything on the notch. Drag files, images, links or text toward the top of the screen and the notch
    opens a well to keep them on the shelf. Originals are referenced, never moved. A one-time tip shows the way.
  • Notch Actions. A drop comes with its next step: Merge PDFs, Extract Text, Remove Background, convert,
    resize, compress, Annotate and more. Everything runs on your Mac, says what it will do, and can be undone.
  • Screenshots, ready to use (opt-in, Settings › Screenshots). New screenshots rise out of the notch with
    Copy, Extract Text, Annotate (arrows, boxes, highlights, text, blur, redaction) and Save to Shelf.
  • Agent Heartbeat and Mission Complete. A small mark at rest shows what your agents are doing, and real
    finished work (long agent turns, CI, builds, big downloads) gets a quiet celebration with one next step.
  • Living Split Island. Music or a timer beside an agent: pin the side you care about, swipe to switch, and
    each side says why it's there.
  • Time Travel. Hold ⌥ and scroll on the notch, or press ⌘Y, to step back through recent runs, downloads,
    shelf items and screenshots.
  • Sound Island. AirPods connecting or the output changing shows the device, volume and a quick output
    switch.
  • Reliability. Harder agent permission responses, media controls that only update after the player
    confirms, a memory-bounded Quick Look thumbnail cache, Calm motion, and status kept beside the camera when
    one side is empty.

Open source

NotchFlow is now MIT licensed, and contributions are welcome. See
CONTRIBUTING.md and the
good first issues.

Known limitations

Developer preview, tested on one MacBook Air. External displays, Stage Manager and a full VoiceOver pass
still need work, and the Metal "Ultra" glass mode is experimental. Details are in the
README.
