FAQ

Everything you need to know. Nothing more.

What does Monolith do, exactly?+

Monolith unifies your Apple Reminders and Calendar right in your Mac’s notch. Available across every desktop: glance at your meetings and tasks, take action without switching windows, then return immediately to your work.

Does my data leave my Mac?+

Neither your reminders nor your calendar events leave your Mac. Monolith syncs with Apple’s apps locally through macOS EventKit, with no account or third-party server.

What is the difference between annual and lifetime?+

The annual plan works on 1 device. The lifetime purchase works on 3 devices at the regular price, or 1 device when a promotion is applied. It does not renew and includes every Monolith 2.x update.

Can I try Monolith before paying?+

Yes. The first launch includes a free 14-day trial with no credit card required.

Which version of macOS do I need?+

The current version targets macOS 14 or later and is designed primarily for MacBooks with a notch.

What can I do in the notch?+

See today’s and tomorrow’s meetings and the current “NOW” event, browse reminder lists, check off tasks, reschedule them by dragging to Today, and quickly create a reminder or event with ⌘N.

Can I display only the calendar or only reminders?+

Yes. You can adjust module ratios (70/30, 50/50, 30/70) or devote 100% of the width to a single module depending on your focus.

Who created Monolith?+

Monolith was created by independent developer Andréas Ferré Tafoiry to keep Apple Reminders within reach at the Mac’s notch. Monolith is independent of Apple.
