Notchpals is a Mac menu bar app. Little characters peek out of the notch with small reminders: drink water, eat on time, sit up straight, rest your eyes, move a little and get to bed.
There are 29 characters, each about one thing, from Blip, the tiny alien who shows you around, to Sir Pounce, a cat who notices the slouch before your back does. You can try any character in your notch before you buy.
On a call, the notch stays shut. Notchpals checks whether the microphone or camera is in use, never what they hear or see, and everything stays on your Mac. On a Mac without a notch, it draws one.
Free for 24 hours, then $4.99 once for the app, Blip and 2 characters you pick. More characters are $0.99 each. One key for up to 3 Macs. macOS 14 or later.
