Questions

Which Macs does it run on?

macOS 26 or later. Works on every Mac: with a notch it lives in the notch, without one it drops down from the top-center of the screen.

Do I need an account?

No. MaxNotch stores everything locally on your Mac.

How does the Claude usage card work?

It's optional. If you use Claude Code and are signed in, MaxNotch reads your plan usage through the official CLI session on your own Mac. Nothing is sent anywhere else.

Are my files copied into MaxNotch?

No. The shelf only remembers where your files are, so nothing is duplicated.

Refunds?

Yes — email within 14 days and you get your money back.
