What is new in ILoveNotch 1.3.0

ILoveNotch 1.3 puts the tabs on Liquid Glass with new icons, lets you select and clear clipboard items, and no longer quits as it opens when a reminder is due.

### Added

- **Select and clear in the Clipboard tab.** Select ticks items to delete together, favorites included, with Select All for what the search shows. Clear deletes everything but favorites, after asking once more.

### Changed

- **Tabs in Liquid Glass, with new icons.** The tab row, All Apps, and the pin with Settings sit on glass, the way macOS 26 draws a toolbar. The notch's icons are now from Tabler Icons, drawn on one grid with one stroke, so every tab looks the same size, and the Network tab is a UFO, beaming your data up and down.

### Fixed

- ILoveNotch no longer quits as it opens when a reminder with a time is due within a day.

### Install

Download **ILoveNotch-1.3.0.dmg** below, open it, and drag ILoveNotch into Applications. It updates itself from then on; if you already have it, choose **Check for Updates…** from its menu bar item. Or with Homebrew: `brew install --cask niyamvora/tap/ilovenotch`.

Needs macOS 14.6 or later. Signed and notarized by Apple. `SHA256SUMS` has the checksums.
