About NotchPop
NotchPop is a Mac app that turns your notch into a control center for music, files, and work tools.
NotchPop suits Mac users who want quick access to music playback, clipboard history, focus timers, and file transfers without cluttering their screen. It's useful for anyone who works across multiple apps and needs information visible at a glance.
- Media controls and now playing from Spotify, Apple Music, or browser tabs
- Focus timers and countdowns that stay visible in the notch
- Clipboard history with search and pinning
- File shelf for drag-and-drop transfers
- Live data from revenue platforms, analytics, and dev servers
Good to know: 7-day free trial, then $3.99 one-time purchase. Works on macOS 14 and newer, including Macs without a notch.
Key features
- Media playback control: Play, pause, skip and view artwork from Spotify, Apple Music, or browser tabs without leaving your work.
- Focus sessions visible: Run Pomodoro timers and countdowns in the notch so your countdown stays on screen while you work.
- Clipboard and file shelf: Access your last fifty copied items and drag files through the notch for quick transfers between apps.
