Release notes

What's new.

Everything that changed in the release that brought NotchNook back.

NotchNook 1.6.3

September 2026 · Timers, todos, and a lot more.

New Timer widget

Scrollable wheels with haptic feedback and a Liquid Glass focus pill, calendar-style scroll glue, and progressive blur.

New To-do list widget

A quick task list with favorites, completion, and auto-archiving.

Also new

  • Media: pick which Now Playing source to show, plus a draggable progress scrubber.
  • New Battery live activity: plugged, unplugged, full, and low-battery transitions.
  • New Bluetooth live activity: device connect and disconnect.
  • Per-activity visibility control in fullscreen.
  • Smarter Tray: stack multiple dropped files at once, persistence across restarts, paste from clipboard, and Option-drag to move.

Fixes and improvements

  • Settings window is now resizable, self-recovers from a corrupted size, and the tabs scroll properly.
  • Notch overhaul: first-click absorption, cursor tracking, keyboard focus, and text editing all fixed.
  • Media: progress advances live, livelier circle and waves effects, and Now Playing detection restored.
  • Battery no longer fires a quick peek on every 1% change.
  • To-do: right-click delete no longer closes the Nook, plus input focus fixes.
  • Calendar: event sync, overnight-event filtering, and end-of-event live activity dismiss.
  • Notes: data-loss prevention and an observer leak fix.
