MetaGrid Pro vs Notch Reminders

Experience a touch-native controller that goes beyond hardware and traditional control apps. Switch apps, and MetaGrid Pro instantly adapts to show the right tools. Work faster with deep app integrations, customizable layouts, powerful macros, advanced DAW/MIDI control, and a growing library of ready-to-use presets. CORE FEATURES: • Adaptive Interface Your layouts update the moment you switch apps, windows, or tools. MetaGrid Pro adapts in real time — changing controls based on the active app, frontmost window, incoming MIDI, keyboard shortcuts, or Apple Scripts. For supported DAWs, it can also switch layouts based on track selection to stay in sync with your workflow. • Deep App Integration Control creative apps on Mac and PC more efficiently. On macOS, access every menu command in tools like Photoshop, Figma, Blender, and DaVinci Resolve — even ones without shortcuts. Run Apple Shortcuts and Keyboard Maestro macros directly, with no shortcut assignments required. • Full Customization Design every detail of your workspace. Resize any object, arrange flexible layouts, and style each grid with skins, adjustable chrome, and backgrounds — including curated textures and images. Every object is fully customizable with palettes, colors, layout options, thousands of icons, or your own artwork. • Presets Start fast with ready-to-use presets for major Apple apps, leading DAWs (Cubase, Ableton Live, Studio One, UAD Luna), audio tools like iZotope RX, design apps like Blender and Figma, and game audio systems like Wwise and FMOD. All presets are editable for Premium users, with optional expert-built multi-grid presets available for advanced workflows. • Master Control Turn repetitive tasks into instant actions with multi-step macros. Combine shortcuts, text insertions, menu commands, MIDI messages, pauses, and more — all from a single tap. • Gesture Pads Control apps with futuristic, highly responsive gesture pads. Multi-finger taps, swipes, and pans offer fast, intuitive navigation and fluid interaction. • Advanced Button Types Use momentary and latching switches, menu-driven buttons, multiple button layouts, and interactive switch groups that adapt to your workflow and provide clear feedback. • Advanced DAW / MIDI Tools Control your DAW with shortcut-free integration. Access extensive command sets in Cubase, Nuendo, Logic Pro, Studio One, and Ableton Live. MetaGrid Pro can switch layouts based on track selection or active editors in supported DAWs.

Notch is a calm home for the reminders you already have. It works directly with the Reminders app, so your lists, your iCloud sync, Siri and your Apple Watch all keep working exactly as before. There is no new account and no second database: Notch simply shows your tasks more clearly. ONE CLEAN LINE PER TASK Each task sits on warm paper with its date and a single Complete button beneath it. Long links, email references and pasted URLs become small, readable link marks instead of a wall of characters. Tap a task for its details; press and hold for everything else. WRITE IT THE WAY YOU'D SAY IT "Send the outline tomorrow at 2pm." "Call the dentist next Tuesday." "Check the oven in 20 minutes." Notch reads the date, the time, the priority (!high) and the list (#Work) out of what you type, and leaves the title clean. EVERYTHING WITHIN REACH Search and the task field float over your list, so the next task is always one thumb away. Today, Upcoming, All and Completed are a tap apart. On iPad, your lists and tasks sit side by side. NOTIFICATIONS THAT OPEN NOTCH Notch delivers its own alerts for due tasks, so tapping one brings you straight to the task. MADE TO BE LOOKED AT ALL DAY Paper or bright ground, light or dark, eight muted accents and four text sizes that follow your system's Dynamic Type, with serif headings and fine rules. Home Screen widgets in three sizes let you check tasks off without opening the app. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything is parsed on your device. Notch makes no network requests, collects no data and needs no account. Your tasks stay in your own iCloud Reminders. Free on iPhone and iPad.
