Capture from anywhere. Keep it useful.
Write it, speak it, copy it, import it, or pull it from Apple Notes. NotchPad keeps captured text searchable, reusable, and private.
Write quick notes
Catch thoughts, checklists, project details, and reference text without opening a full notes app. Rich text, pins, search, and a fast editor live right in the notch.
Speak with NotchLive
Use NotchLive Pro for on-device speech-to-text, Raw and AI cleanup, then send the finished note back. NotchLive captures voice; NotchPad keeps the note.
Capture copied text
Everything you copy can become searchable memory. Save links, snippets, commands, and quotes automatically, then pin or merge them when they matter.
Reuse what you capture
Turn repeated text into snippets: code blocks, email replies, prompts, signatures, and commands you paste all week.
Keep sensitive text private
Passwords and private notes stay local. Sensitive text from 1Password, Bitwarden, and Apple Passwords is encrypted with AES-256-GCM and unlocked with Touch ID.
Pull from Apple Notes
Browse, search, and edit Apple Notes from the notch when you need existing notes without switching contexts. Changes sync back instantly.
Import files as notes
Drop documents and code files onto NotchPad to turn them into notes. Supports 50+ file types, including Markdown, RTF, Word, PDF, Swift, Python, and JavaScript.
Works on any Mac.
MacBook with a notch? Hover to open. iMac, Mac Mini, or older MacBook? Press ⌃⌃ (double Control). Same app, same features, every Mac running macOS 15 Sequoia.
Built for text you actually capture
Developers
Keep API keys, terminal output, code snippets, prompts, and implementation notes close without spreading them across random files.
Writers
Collect research, quotes, outlines, and stray sentences before they become a draft. Clipboard history keeps the good bits from disappearing.
Professionals
Capture meeting notes, dictated thoughts from NotchLive, email templates, and follow-ups, then keep the reusable pieces ready to paste.
Everyone
Stop losing text you meant to keep. NotchPad gives copied, typed, spoken, and imported text a private place to land.

Most tools either capture text or protect it. NotchPad does both. It gives quick thoughts, copied text, voice notes, Apple Notes, and snippets one private place to land. Notes are free forever. Clipboard history and snippets unlock with Pro — $7.99 one-time.

Frequently asked questions
Which Macs does NotchPad support?
NotchPad works on any Mac running macOS 15 Sequoia or later — MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, Mac Mini, and more. The notch interaction is available on MacBook models with a notch, but you can also open NotchPad with a keyboard shortcut (⌃⌃) on any Mac.
Where is my data stored?
Everything stays on your Mac. Notes, clipboard history, and snippets are stored locally using macOS-native storage. Nothing is sent to any server. Ever.
Is my clipboard data private?
Yes. Clipboard data never leaves your device. Passwords copied from 1Password, Bitwarden, and Apple Passwords are automatically encrypted with AES-256-GCM and can only be revealed with Touch ID.
What's free and what's Pro?
Notes are free forever — no trial, no time limit. Pro ($7.99 one-time) unlocks clipboard history and snippets. No subscription, no recurring fees.
Does NotchPad have AI voice notes?
NotchPad stores and edits notes. The microphone button opens NotchLive Notes for dictation, Raw/AI cleanup, and speech-to-text, then NotchLive sends the finished note back into NotchPad.
How many Macs can I use it on?
Your license covers up to 3 Macs. You can activate, deactivate, and transfer your license from the Settings panel inside NotchPad.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. Refund requests can be submitted within 14 days of purchase to support@tinythings.app or through Polar.sh support.
