  Import clipboard data from other apps, pick colors on screen and work with videos, links and codes in copied content.

  New

  • Import clipboard history and pinned items from Paste, PastePal, PasteNow, Maccy and CopyClip (Pro). Duplicate content is skipped, and pinned items go to the matching Board.
  • Videos copied from Finder have a preview and a VIDEO label in the notch, Clipboard Panel and Library. The thumbnail remains when the original file is moved or deleted.
  • Type @video to filter videos.
  • Links and OTP codes inside copied text can be accessed directly from the right-click menu.
  • Pick Color: press ⇧⌘1 to pick a color anywhere on screen. Tab switches HEX/RGB/HSL/HSB; ⌘-click to keep picking colors (Pro). Change the shortcut in Settings.
  • Apple Music: the notch shows the next track a few seconds before it changes, with the track name, artist and a countdown animation.
  • AI agents have new loading indicator styles.

  Improved

  • OCR responds faster on the first use.
  • The OCR result card below the notch is more compact, previews up to five lines and closes with Esc.
  • The Clipboard Panel offers “Copy and close” and “Paste and close” when clicking an item. A pinned panel stays open.
  • PNG, JPEG and GIF images keep their format in the clipboard, avoiding larger files or lost animation. Images copied from Finder show their file name and can be searched by name.
  • Delete clipboard history from the past 15 minutes, one hour, 24 hours or seven days instead of clearing everything. Items pinned to Boards are kept.
  • Smart Select has a new look and sits beside the end of the selected text in supported apps.
  • Calendar adjusts its height to the number of events. Click the event name in “Next up” to open its details.
  • Swiping between notch pages gives a light haptic tap when the gesture reaches the switching point.
  • Drag to add, reorder or remove controls directly on the player preview in Media Settings.
  • The live music waveform pauses while Low Power Mode is on to reduce load and save battery.
  • Pomodoro now offers more sounds.
  • Onboarding lets you enable Screenshot shortcuts, warns about macOS shortcut conflicts and prompts before you skip permissions.
  • Screenshot editing handles keep a consistent size at every zoom level, making them easier to use.
  • Changing the app language prompts you to restart immediately, in the language you selected.
  • Improved compatibility with Codex Auto Review.

  Fixed

  • Fixed Codex appearing done while it was still running or had unfinished subagents.
  • Approval requests no longer stay pending after being answered in the terminal; fixed Claude asking for input when it had already finished.
  • Enabling Translation can show the translate button beside selected text without also enabling Smart Select in Utilities.
  • Fixed a crash when turning Low Power Mode on or off.
  • Fixed dragging files to the notch accidentally opening Mission Control.
  • Reduced CPU usage when Settings is open but idle.
  • Fixed restarting the app sometimes opening two instances of OneNotch.

• 2.0.4Oct 7, 2026Drag several clipboard items at once, switch notch pages with Tab, and enjoy improved stability.

  Drag several clipboard items at once, switch notch pages with Tab, and enjoy improved stability.

  New

  • Drag several clipboard items at once from the notch and the Clipboard Panel. Select items with ⌘-click, or ⇧-click to select a range.
  • Drop several items on a Board to pin them all at once.
  • Press Tab or Shift-Tab to switch pages while the notch is open and the pointer is over it.
  • New "Edges open their own page" option in Interaction zones. When it is off, clicking or hovering anywhere on the notch opens the page set in "When the notch opens".
  • Two new clipboard sort options, "By App" and "Name (A–Z)", shared by the notch and the Clipboard Panel.
  • The Pin Board can now be renamed and given a new icon.
  • New "Floating Panel Preview" option in Settings › Clipboard › Appearance to turn the preview beside the Clipboard Panel on or off.

  Improved

  • Smart Select translates standalone date words such as "tomorrow" or "Friday" instead of suggesting a new event. Phrases with a time or an event name, such as "Friday 3pm" or "Team sync Friday", still show the calendar card.
  • Smart Select cards include a Translate button that switches to the translation right in the card.
  • Smaller Smart Select badge. The translation panel shows language codes so language names are no longer cut off.
  • The text preview beside the Clipboard Panel shows the full content and supports selecting, scrolling and copying. Moving the pointer toward the preview no longer switches the item being viewed.
  • Redesigned passcode and Board create/edit prompts: they now appear in the middle of the Clipboard Panel, with a Cancel button and clear actions.
  • Copy Stack: click the count on an item to remove it from the stack; press Esc to clear the search, then filters, then the stack. The stack clears after you drag it out, so the same items are not pasted twice.
  • Dragging a stack with both text and images into Notes or TextEdit keeps all of the content, in the order you selected it.
  • Images copied from Finder drag out as the original file, keeping their name and format.
  • Smoother area capture animation, with no stutter on the first capture.
  • The capture preview panel (Quick Access), when placed in a bottom corner, now sits above third-party docks and floating toolbars instead of being covered by them.
  • The Send Feedback form fills in the email you used before, with a quick clear button, so we can reply to you. Support contact is now consolidated into Send Feedback and Report a Bug.
  • "Enable gestures" is renamed "Swipe down to open". Swiping down to open the notch is available only when "Open notch on hover" is off, to avoid accidental opening while hovering.

  Fixed

  • Fixed the app freezing for a few seconds when copying or pasting with sound effects on, at launch, and when changing tracks.
  • Fixed the app appearing frozen after Check for Updates; the result now always appears in front.
  • Fixed the notch showing an old video after switching videos or tabs in Google Chrome.

  • Improved · With the menu bar icon hidden, reopening OneNotch from Spotlight or Finder opens Settings.
