on restart

I am grateful for the ability of this app to remove the notch on my Macbook Pro. The only slight glitch is that when I restart, the notch reappears even though the program still shows that it is turned on and the notch off. Only when I turn it off and back on again does the notch disappear again. I tried selecting "always disable notch," but this doesn't work. Is there a way to apply the program even when the computer is restarted?

This program is essential, and works flawlessly.

It is an incredible little program and does exactly what it says it will do! It is lightweight, and disables the notch in a way I never would've thought of doing before, very innovative!

My one question: you can enable 'double clicking the black area to disable the notch', is there any way you can enable the reverse too? So if I want to disable the notch for a period of time by double clicking it and then I want to enable it again, I can double click it and it'll toggle it back on again? I feel like this feature is sorely missing, unless it's there and I just don't see it! Being able to double click as a two-way toggle rather than a one-way toggle would make the program even more seamless! Please do!

But anyway, thank you for such a marvelous program! I know that if I ever need to disable the notch, I now can! Awesome! :D

P.S., how can I donate to you, developers?

One Enhancement Away from Perfection

Message to the developer.

Since I've supplied you with a Cappuccino, please work to make this app a Menu Bar application only. Is there really a need to have this application run in the Dock when it's clearly a great Menu Bar utility.

Developer Response ,

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Actually, the app can be just a menu bar utility. You just need to open the preference panel by clicking the down arrow button on the main window, and unselect “Show Dock icon”.

If you have more questions, feel free to reach out to contact@chouti.io
Enjoy!
