About HealthyNotch
You've been at your desk for six hours. Haven't had water since breakfast. Neck locked in one position, eyes dry from the screen. You didn't even notice until now. HealthyNotch lives quietly in your Mac's notch and nudges you before it gets that far: stand up, drink water, blink, stretch. No dock icon, no logging, no dashboards. One-time payment, lifetime access, no subscription.
About Islet
Most notch utilities just draw a static shape over the cutout. Islet actually behaves like iPhone's Dynamic Island: native spring-physics expand/collapse, real-time HUDs for volume and brightness, a live music glance with full playback controls, one-tap audio output switching (no System Settings detour), plus calendar, weather, and a file tray you can drop into from anywhere. Built natively in Swift + AppKit, not Electron, fast and fullscreen-aware.
