MacBook users often need quick access to controls like brightness, volume, and Wi-Fi, but navigating menus is cumbersome. A utility that repurposes the notch as a control center would streamline this process. Users pay for the convenience and efficiency it offers. Start with basic controls like volume and brightness, then expand to customizable widgets. The biggest risk is Apple introducing similar functionality natively.
