Just enough, at a glance.
Your Mac, at a glance.
Volume and brightness, right where you’re looking.
Canopy can replace the macOS volume and brightness overlay with one that lives in the notch. Choose from four layouts and two bar styles. With color-coded volume, the bar turns yellow, then red, as things get loud.
Click the screen and press ↑ or ↓. Or use the keys below.
The edge of your screen speaks up.
Canopy treats the black border around your display as part of the app. The notch is where it’s thickest. The rest of the edge lights up when something happens.
Charging Comet
Plug in, and a streak of light races around the edge of your screen and dives into the notch.
Edge Meter
A three-point line along any edge keeps your Claude session or battery in view. The one along the bottom of this page is tracking how far you’ve read.
Sidebar
Push the pointer against the right edge of your screen and the border swells out to show your battery and Claude usage. Try it here.
Stays awake.
Even with the lid closed.
Keep your Mac awake for an hour, until 5 PM or indefinitely. Or let Caffeinate start on its own when an app opens, a display connects or you join a certain Wi-Fi network. Close the lid and your Mac keeps working. The moment Canopy quits, the Mac gets too hot or the battery runs low, normal sleep comes right back.
Built on Boring Notch. Rebuilt as a platform.
Canopy began as a fork of Boring Notch, the open-source notch app, and grew into something else. Every feature is its own module, and any of them can be switched off without touching the rest.
Anything that needs more access than an app should have, like keeping a closed Mac awake, runs in a small, separate helper that does exactly one job. It’s written in Swift and SwiftUI, and built with Claude Code.
