Dynamic Island, for your Mac.
PulseBar brings the Dynamic Island experience to macOS. Get beautiful, glanceable notification overlays at the top of your screen — without replacing your existing notifications.
Requires macOS 13 Ventura or later
Open the DMG, drag PulseBar into Applications, then right-click and choose "Open" on first launch.
Everything you need, nothing you don't.
Elegant Overlay
Notifications appear as a sleek pill-shaped overlay at the top center of your screen, just like Dynamic Island on iPhone.
Non-Intrusive
PulseBar works alongside macOS notifications — it never replaces them. You still have full control.
Lightweight
Runs quietly in the background with minimal CPU and memory usage. You won't even know it's there.
Privacy First
Uses only the Accessibility API to detect notifications. No data is collected or sent anywhere.
