DropNotch
Your notch, now a shelf.
Free download · 15-day Pro trial included · macOS 13 or later · 12 languages
Park it in the notch.
Drag anything to the top of your screen. It waits in the notch until you drag it out — to another app, another Space or another display.
Grab several, drop once
Collect files from different places, then drag them all out together.
Screenshots and downloads
New screenshots and finished downloads can land on the shelf on their own.
Make it yours
Drag a corner to resize the notch. It remembers where you left off.
Drop on an action. Done.
Share, convert or file things away without opening another app. Drop a file on an action, or select items on the shelf and click one.
Share
AirDrop, Mail, Messages, and any app with a share extension.
Convert
Compress, convert images, remove backgrounds and pull text or QR codes out of images — all on your Mac.
Organize
Copy or move to folders, rename with a pattern, add tags, run Shortcuts and scripts.
Faster still: the wings.
Your two favorite actions wait on either side of the notch. Fling a file at one and it runs — the notch doesn’t even need to open.
Your two favorites
Pick any action for each side — AirDrop and Mail to start.
Grows as you get close
The targets appear the moment you start dragging and get bigger as you approach.
Your notch, alive.
Charging, AirPods, a timer, Caps Lock and more appear right beside the notch — then get out of your way.
Everything you copy, close at hand.
Clipboard history lives in the notch too. Search it, filter by type, pin what you keep reaching for and paste with ⌘1–⌘9.
Let it run itself.
Set it up once and DropNotch takes care of the routine.
Smart rules
Act on new downloads, screenshots and files in a folder — like filing invoices or shrinking screenshots.
Action chains
Run several steps in a row. Each step works on what the previous one made.
Action sets
Different actions for work and home, switched by hand or on a schedule.
Free to use. Pro to fly.
The shelf and everyday sharing are free forever. Pro unlocks the power tools — and it’s a one-time purchase.
