Hide The Notch
Your wallpaper, whole again: the notch goes, your photo stays.
The effect you want.
Fade, rounded band, retro stripes…
Three ways, and one slider each. A fade that dissolves into the image with no edge at all, a rounded band that follows the corners of the screen, or a halftone that breaks the black into stripes.
Any photo you like.
Pick one from your collection, or generate a wallpaper of your own.
Bring the photo that matters and frame it the way you want, or start from a gradient and reshape it by hand. Either way it is decoded and exported on the phone, and never sent anywhere.
Preview it, at a glance.
Adjust the effect in a moment.
Hold the wallpaper and it appears on a sketched home screen, icons on top. It is the only way to judge the thing that actually matters: whether the black reads as hardware rather than as a black rectangle.
Export it, free.
Keep the image, or share it.
PNG at the exact resolution of your screen, and never JPEG. JPEG makes block artefacts where the black meets the image, and those artefacts are precisely what makes a cutout reappear.
Nothing to unlock, nothing to pay.
No ads. No account. No tracking.
The only purchase is a tip, if you ever feel like leaving one.
Your wallpaper is the picture you look at most often in your life. Fifty times a day, a hundred. Someone, a place, a light, a three second memory before you answer a message.
And there is a notch in it.
This app adjusts your wallpaper to hide it. The top of the screen turns black, the same night as the one already around the camera, the kind only OLED screens can make, and your picture carries on underneath as if nothing had happened.
Notch, punch hole, Dynamic Island: whatever your phone calls it, it disappears.
You choose your photo, the one that matters, and frame it the way you want. Or you start from a gradient and push it around with your finger until you land on the right colour, the one you would not have found anywhere else.
There are several ways to make the notch disappear, and a single setting for each. You try, you see straight away, you keep the one you like.
Then the picture is yours. It lands in your photos, at the exact size of your screen. You keep it, you send it to someone, you make another one tomorrow because the light has changed.
Free. No ads, no account, no tracking, no subscription. Your photos never leave your phone.
