Pip lives in your MacBook notch and quietly fixes the tiny annoyances of macOS. Catch screenshots before they hit your desktop, park windows for later, remember everything you copy, save tabs for another day, and keep files one hover away. The things you do dozens of times a day now live in one place.

Hey everyone! I'm Jonas, the maker of Pip. It started as a simple idea: I was taking dozens of screenshots every day and hated having them pile up on my desktop. I kept thinking that Apple's notch felt wasted, so I started experimenting with turning it into something useful. Pip slowly became my everyday utility. Screenshots live in the notch now, I can park windows and restore them later, save tabs for another day, keep files around temporarily and never lose copied text anymore. The funny thing is that most of the features came from annoyances I personally had while using my Mac every day. I'd love to hear which feature you'd use the most or what you'd like to see added next. Thanks for checking it out!

Comment highlights

Honestly the clipboard history alone is worth it, kind of forgot how much I relied on it once I started using Pip. Sits in the notch and basically stays out of your way until you need it.

finally a tiny app that actually feels useful and stays out of the way, the notch location is such a clever touch honestly

finally something that makes the notch actually useful. the screenshot catch feature alone saved me from the usual desktop cleanup ritual.

finally someone put all the little macOS annoyances in one spot. parked a window and saved a tab in under a minute, super smooth.

love the notch spot, such a clever touch. one thing i'd kill for: a way to search through everything pip has caught (clips, parked windows, saved tabs, hover files) from a single quick palette. would turn it from a handy tray into an actual second brain.

Lives right in the notch and actually makes sense there, which I didn't expect. The clipboard history alone is worth it, and parking a window with one click feels weirdly satisfying.
