Questions, answered.
Is NotchNest free for students?
NotchNest is free to download, so there's no student plan to apply for. The free tier is capped — one note, one bookmark, five clipboard items and today's calendar events — and NotchNest Premium lifts every limit for $2.99/month, or $14.99 once for Lifetime, which works out cheaper than a term of coffee.
Does it have a study timer?
Yes. The built-in Pomodoro timer runs focus sprints with breaks and a daily streak, right in the notch.
Will it work on my MacBook Air?
Yes — on MacBook Air M2 and later it uses the notch; on the Air M1 it runs as a slim top-bar panel.
Make your notch work for you.
Free on the Mac App Store. Works on every MacBook with a notch — and on older Macs as a top-bar panel.
