Who each app is for

Choose NotchNook for a configurable utility center

NotchNook calls itself a center of utilities and emphasizes widgets, live actions, a file shelf, scrolling gestures, multiple monitors, and many options. It is the stronger fit when customization and a larger notch environment are the point.

Choose Gojo for a smaller daily loop

Gojo is built around a repeatable set of actions: control music, snap a window, recover clipboard text, stage a file, or change display warmth. It is the better fit when you want the notch useful without filling it with a large widget system.
