Turn your MacBook's notch into a hub for music and calls
NotchX turns your MacBook's camera notch into a live hub: what's playing, messages from Slack, Teams and Messages, calls you can answer or decline, your next meeting and the weather. Everything stays on your Mac. 14-day free trial, then $9.99 once.
The camera notch is the one part of my MacBook I look at all day, and it did nothing. So I built NotchX: it turns the notch into a tiny live hub that stays the size of the notch.
Music: what's playing in Apple Music or Spotify, with 5 looks and 35 visualizers
Messages from Messages, Slack and Teams, shown beside the camera
Calls: answer or decline, with mic and camera switches once you're on the call (even Slack huddles)
Your next meeting with a one-click Join
Volume and brightness as a slim line instead of the big pop-up, AirPods, and the weather
Privacy was the hard rule: everything is read and shown on your Mac. No account, no analytics, no message history. It's signed and notarized by Apple.
It's free for 14 days, then $9.99 once, no subscription.
I'd love to hear what you'd want the notch to show next!

Who hunted NotchX?
NotchX was hunted by Nguyen Quan. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
