The people behind NotchPixel
NotchPixel is a Dynamic Island for Windows 11 and 10: one island at the top of the screen for music, your clipboard, files, games, calls and reminders. It is published in the Microsoft Store by KORE INDUSTRIES and built by its founder, Kore D.

How NotchPixel is made
NotchPixel draws its own window with Direct3D, DirectComposition and Skia, so the island animates with springs at the monitor's refresh rate. It is signed by Microsoft and sold only in the Microsoft Store, which installs and updates it. It has no account, no telemetry and no ads: what it reads on your PC stays there (privacy policy, how we measure memory and CPU).
