Notch Space 1.1.8 is the desktop widgets release: Nothing-style Dot glances, App Library categories, a pinned notch HUD, and a pile of polish around music artwork, clipboard colors, and File Organizer rules.
Download the free trial from the download page. Existing installs pick it up through Sparkle.
Dot widgets on the desktop
Four new Dot widgets keep weather, calendar, sun, and clock as clean glances — closer to a Nothing-style matrix than a busy dashboard card.
Put them where you look, size them from the right-click menu, and keep the rest of Notch Space in the notch when you need the full panel.
App Library and Recent Strip
Category widgets turn groups of apps into an App Library on the desktop. The Recent Strip rotates through what you’ve opened lately so launches stay one click away without another dock.
Turning Widgets off in Settings now clears every desktop panel, including Categories and the Recent Strip.
Pinned notch HUD
Pin a selectable HUD in the collapsed notch for the status you want at a glance — without expanding the island every time.
Music artwork you choose
Bring your own GIF or WebP cover art. Vinyl widgets can spin the label. Settings previews stay still so browsing widgets doesn’t burn CPU on animated art.
Clipboard colors
Paste a bare hex value and Clipboard shows a color swatch next to the history item — useful when you’re matching UI or brand colors.
Mind-map rule builder
File Organizer gets a clearer mind-map style rule builder so conditions and destinations are easier to see while you edit.
Also in this build
- Tips & tutorials strip in Settings
- Calendar refresh and publish-safe widget updates
- Sharper YouTube artwork and top-process CPU %
- Clipboard history that survives Quit more reliably
