For MacBook Pro & Air with a notch

Make the notch the most useful pixels on your Mac.

Crest turns that empty black bar into a hub for Now Playing, a glanceable dashboard, calendar, tasks, system stats, screen time, translation and more. It hangs from your notch and vanishes when you don't need it.

Your todo list, your order

  • Arrange tasks your way: drag a task over another and the list keeps your order. Right-click for Move to top.
  • Copy a task's text in a click: a quiet copy button on every row, or right-click and Copy.
  • Clear completed now archives tasks to the Trash instead of deleting them, so a mistaken clear is one Restore away.
