The way it uses the notch as the actual home for the timer instead of fighting against it is such a smart, understated move. Feels like something Apple should have built themselves.

the way it wraps the notch into something genuinely useful instead of fighting it is kind of brilliant, and the countdown timing before the meeting starts feels like the kind of detail you only get from people who actually live in calendar hell

genius way to make the notch actually useful, the live countdown before a call popping right under the camera is a nice touch

Clever use of that notch real estate, the countdown popping up right before a call is surprisingly handy. Wish it worked with more apps beyond Meet and Zoom though.

This is such a clever use of that wasted notch space. One thing I'd love is support for multiple calendars at once — I have work in Google and personal in iCloud and the app only seems to pull from one. Letting me pick which synced calendars to monitor would make it way more useful across the day.

Love the concept, super clean use of that wasted notch space. One idea though: let me pin a specific meeting app (like Zoom) as the default instead of picking each time, and maybe show the meeting subject from the calendar invite too so I know which call is about to start without looking elsewhere.

Clever use of the notch, finally feels like that space is good for something. Calendar pickup worked instantly with no setup.

Finally a use for that notch that does not feel gimmicky. It just picked up my synced Google calendar and popped a countdown right before my last call, joining with one click was oddly satisfying.

The notch idea is genuinely clever, finally putting that black bar to work. One thing I'd love is the ability to see who's already in the call or a quick preview of the meeting agenda right from the island before joining. Would save the scramble to open Notes separately each time.

Took it for a spin on my M2 and the countdown popping right above the notch before a Zoom call feels weirdly delightful, and it picked up my Google calendar instantly without any setup faff.

love how clean this is and the zero-setup angle is genuinely nice. one thing id love to see is a little banner that pops up when the meeting actually starts and you forgot to hit join, maybe even auto-join after a few seconds if i dont respond

Finally, someone put that notch to good use. I had a Zoom call pop up with the countdown right around the notch, and it felt surprisingly natural — no more digging through my calendar to find the link.

Love that it just reads whatever's already synced to macOS — no sketchy account permissions or extra login flow, the notch just knows. Clean way to turn a hardware quirk into something actually useful instead of fighting it.

Finally put that notch to work. The countdown popping up right before a Meet call is honestly so satisfying, and it picked up my calendar without any setup. Worth the seven bucks.

Honestly this is a clever use of the notch, kind of wish I'd thought of it. One thing that would seal the deal for me though, could you add a quick mute/unmute toggle right in the island? Having to dig into the meeting app mid-call kind of defeats the purpose of having everything glanceable.

Cute idea, love that it just works with the calendars I already have. One thing though, would be great if it could show a tiny preview of who's joining or the meeting topic right in the island. Right now I still have to click through to figure out if it's a quick sync or a real one I need to prep for.

honestly this is pretty clever, turned my notch into something actually useful. the countdown popping up right before a meet is kind of delightful

honestly the choice to use the existing macOS calendar syncing instead of asking for yet another account login is kind of genius, feels like it should have always been there

love how it just reads whatever calendar is already synced to macos, no fiddling with permissions or weird config. the one-click join button tucked into the notch is such a clean little move, honestly feels native instead of bolted on
