Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about CrazzyNotch, privacy, and Mac compatibility.

What is CrazzyNotch for Mac?

CrazzyNotch is a lightweight, open-source macOS utility that transforms the MacBook camera notch into an interactive Dynamic Island command center. It features live music waveforms, system telemetry (CPU, RAM, Battery, Network), 24 native SwiftUI tools, and on-device biometric Face Unlock.

How does Face Unlock work on Mac with CrazzyNotch?

CrazzyNotch uses local on-device Apple CoreML and the Vision framework via your Mac's FaceTime HD camera to authenticate your face. Biometric computation happens 100% locally on your machine—zero camera frames or embeddings are saved to disk or transmitted over the internet.

Does CrazzyNotch work on Macs without a notch?

Yes! CrazzyNotch automatically detects non-notched screens (Mac mini, Mac Studio, iMac, MacBook Air M1, and external displays) and smoothly transitions into a floating Dynamic Island pill anchored cleanly at the top of your screen.

Is CrazzyNotch free and open source?

Yes. CrazzyNotch is 100% free and open-source under the MIT License by DebugLab. There are no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no ads, and no background analytics tracking.

What macOS versions are supported?

CrazzyNotch is compiled as a Universal Binary supporting both Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4) and Intel Macs running macOS 14.0 Sonoma, macOS 15.0+ Sequoia, and newer releases.
