The demonstration
Tack+, in action.
The line at the edge of the screen, the gesture, the fifteen apps: see them in action.
Tack+ is a Mac app (macOS 14 or later): a panel that opens from the edge of the screen, with your music, Messages, clipboard, files and widgets. One-time purchase, no subscription.
Features
Everything you reach for ten times a day.
Now playing.
Night DriveAmbre Lune
The title, the artist, the cover art, from Spotify or Apple Music, your pick. And a way to skip to the next.
Four tools.
Within the same gesture.
Drag a file to the edge.
Try it here, with a real file. Only its name shows: nothing is read, nothing is sent.
One search, five places.
Clipboard, stash, messages, calendar, reminders: a single field, and every result says where it came from.
One shortcut, and there it is.
⌥ + space opens the panel without lifting a hand. The same gesture closes it.
Position
Bottom. Or top.
The line lives at the bottom, or at the very top, where, on MacBooks, it merges with the camera notch: the day on one side, the time on the other. One click on the position pill, and Tack+ springs to the other edge.
The position pill lives in the panel, next to the tools.
The shelf
Drop it right there.
Hold a file and pull it toward the edge: the bar opens to meet you before you even arrive. Drop it: it stays at hand, without being copied, ready to leave again with a drag.
Drag it out of Tack+ to take it back. Nothing is read, nothing is sent.
Search
One bar. The whole Mac.
⌥Space opens Tack+, and a single bar searches everything: your clipboard, a file in the Stash, a conversation, today's appointments, a reminder. You type, the answer rises. Enter, it's open.
The Beacon
The LED beats under your fingers.
One setting, just one: turn on the Beacon, and the caps-lock indicator blinks with every key you press. To keep time, Tack+ watches the keyboard, with your permission, and keeps only the moment of each keystroke: the character is never read, stored or sent. A click on the panel's beacon turns it on, the same click turns it off.
Clipboard
Copied, never lost.
Every ⌘C joins the history at the edge of the screen: the text, the link, the color. One click puts it back on the clipboard, ready to paste. The history lives in a file on this Mac. It never leaves.
Your home
Keep what you use.
You arrange Tack+ like a phone's home screen: drop a card on another and it takes its place, size included. A “−” removes what you don't use.
Nothing is uninstalled: a “+” brings back any card you removed.
Try it: drag a card onto another, or click a “−”.
Return picks up the card, the arrow keys choose its spot, and Return drops it.
Face Lock
One look, and it's open.
When the panel opens, your Mac's camera checks your face with a quick glance, and what you've protected opens up. Close the panel and the lock comes back, instantly or after 1, 5 or 15 minutes, and as soon as the screen goes to sleep.
Demonstration: the Tack+ panel opens below the camera notch, locked. The camera checks the face, the ring fills, a checkmark draws itself and the content appears.
-
Nothing leaves this Mac.
Your face is recognized right here, by Apple's Vision. No image is kept; the face print stays on this Mac, is never sent anywhere and can be erased from Face Profiles.
-
Several faces.
Up to five profiles that you name, rename or delete: with glasses, without, or for someone else who uses this Mac.
-
Everything, or a few pages.
The whole panel, or only Messages, Mail, Clipboard and Notes. Their home cards and search results stay veiled until you unlock.
-
Your password, always.
Face not recognized, camera busy? Your Mac password or Touch ID unlocks it anyway.
Off by default. The camera light comes on only for the check. Handy, not a vault: a photo can fool a camera.
Questions.
Doesn't it get in the Dock's way?
No. The sensitive zone is exactly as thick as the line, six points, and Tack+ asks for a firm push of ten points against the edge. A click that passes through the edge to hit a Dock icon won't open it.
Does the Beacon touch my keyboard?
It drives the indicator, never the key: your typing isn't altered. When it's on, it listens to the keyboard read-only (the “Input Monitoring” permission, the same one that lights the LED) and keeps only the moment of each keystroke: the character is never read, stored or sent. A single setting, off by default.
Is Mac+ required?
No. The module only appears if Mac+ is installed on this Mac. Tack+ works on its own.
Which Macs are compatible?
Every Mac on macOS 14 or later, Apple silicon or Intel. About twenty megabytes on disk.
My data?
What Tack+ reads, messages, calendar or clipboard, never leaves this Mac. What travels: your account, and four settings that follow you from one Mac to the next (notepad, Shortcuts favorites, music source, home layout).
Why 15 €?
Tack+ opens a hundred times a day. It shouldn't cost you a decision every month. This is the welcome offer: 15 € instead of 20 €, for a limited time. What you pay today never changes: updates included, on all your Macs, no subscription.
And if I don't like it?
Fourteen days to say so. One email is enough, we refund, no questions asked.
Do I need an account?
Yes. The panel unlocks once you're signed in to an account that has bought Tack+: the account holds your license and carries four settings from one Mac to the next. Offline, the saved session is enough: Tack+ won't ask again.
Does Tack+ work with Spotify and Apple Music?
Yes, both, your choice. The Music module drives Spotify or Apple Music right in the panel: playback, volume, position, artwork. The switch lives in the player's header, one click away.
Does Tack+ keep a clipboard history on Mac?
Yes. Every Cmd+C joins the history at the edge of the screen: text, links, color codes. One click puts an item back on the clipboard, ready to paste. The history lives in a file on this Mac and never leaves it.
What does Tack+ do with the MacBook notch?
Placed at the top, the line fuses with the camera notch: the date on one side, the time on the other. The notch stops being a black hole and becomes a useful landmark.
Which languages does Tack+ speak?
Six languages: French, English, Spanish, German, Chinese and Japanese. Both the app and the site follow your Mac's language, automatically.
