Hey Product Hunt! I’m Aditya, the maker of NotchOwl 🦉
I built NotchOwl because I kept switching apps just to check a task, start a timer, or write down a quick thought. I wanted those little things close to my work.
The notch felt like the perfect place.
NotchOwl turns it into a sleek little workspace for your to-do list, focus timers, notes, and calendar events. Everything is one hover away.
The first version was rough. I spent a lot of time adjusting text sizes, simplifying controls, and making the workspace feel at home on a Mac. Small details, but they make a difference when you use something every day.
It’s a one-time purchase of $4.9 for up to 3 Macs, with no subscription.
I’d love for you to give it a try. What would make NotchOwl useful in your daily workflow?
the notch is such a small target to cram tasks, notes, a timer, and calendar events into - how do you keep it from feeling like four separate mini-apps stacked on top of each other instead of one workspace? genuinely curious how you handled the information density problem there

Loved this idea. I’ve always had this thought that the notch is just sitting there on my Mac, and there should be something useful happening around it.
And you actually built it.
Turning that tiny, otherwise-unused space into a little productivity workspace is such a cool idea. The execution looks really clean too + I'm in love the UI, gonna buy it within this week.
