Powerful. Seamless. Beautiful.

Designed to look and feel like a native part of macOS.

Universal Media Engine
Doesn't matter where it plays. WaveNotch seamlessly detects and controls media from the native Spotify App, Google Chrome, Brave, Microsoft Edge, and Safari.
Live Synced Lyrics
Sing along flawlessly. Automatically fetches LRC data for time-synced lyrics in the notch.
Smart Drop-down Banners
Stay in your workflow with elegant, non-intrusive status banners when a new song starts.
Dominant Color Waveforms
A UI that adapts to your music. The audio waveform visualizer and text highlights automatically extract and match the dominant color of the current album artwork.
Queue & Playlist Manager
Look ahead. A dedicated Playlist Tab allows you to see the upcoming queue for YouTube Music and YouTube web players directly from the Notch.

Built for macOS, Respectful of Privacy

Advanced engineering that puts you in control.

Silent by Default

Unlike poorly made Mac apps that blast you with security popups on launch, WaveNotch is completely silent by default. A native Settings window lets users individually opt-in to Spotify, Chrome, Brave, Edge, or Safari integrations.

How It Works
