O.status

Status Trio is a native macOS app that combines Wi-Fi, battery, and volume information into one configurable status icon shown in the menu bar, the Dock, or both. Its popover reports Wi-Fi signal and network state, battery percentage and charging or Low Power Mode status, and volume level or mute state; controls are available from the icon. The app supports configurable icon sizes, connection-state rendering, language selection, launch at login, and event-driven monitoring with a low-frequency polling fallback. It is built with Swift, SwiftUI, and AppKit for macOS 15 or later. It reads status through public macOS frameworks, does not use App Sandbox or require a network entitlement, and includes no telemetry or analytics; location access is optional and requested only for displaying the current Wi-Fi network name. It can be built from source or installed from an official GitHub release; the project is licensed under Apache License 2.0 and maintained by lingyired.

HiLight Studio is an experimental Android application by Dhananjay Bhosale for controlling the eight-LED HiLight array on Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold devices running Android 17. It supports solid colors, animated patterns, per-app foreground and notification rules, per-contact colors, presets, wallpaper-derived colors, camera and microphone activity rules, face-down notification behavior, quiet hours, and battery-related controls. The app requires privileged access to Android's lights service and can obtain it through root, Shizuku, or ADB. It is installed as a signed APK through ADB, uses notification access for LED alerts, and includes renderer diagnostics and cleanup handling. The project describes itself as experimental and unaffiliated with Google; the videos also state that it operates without internet or contacts permission and applies brightness and duration limits.

Desko is an open-source desk dashboard that turns a spare phone into an always-on display. A lightweight Python process on a PC collects data and pushes it over WebSocket to a browser tab on a phone on the same Wi-Fi network, with no phone app, account, cloud service, or build tooling required. The dashboard cycles through five scenes: an idle view with clocks, weather, battery, latency, and PC uptime; a music view with album art, synchronized karaoke lyrics, and PC playback controls; a statistics view with CPU and GPU load and temperatures, memory, network activity, sparklines, and an optional running game; a development view with workspace, Git branch status, changed files, cursor position, commits, and lines, sourced from VS Code or Git; and a focus view with a server-side Pomodoro timer. Scenes can be manually selected or pinned, and widgets hide when their underlying data sources are unavailable.

omarchy-pods is an Omarchy bar panel and bundled Linux daemon for AirPods. The daemon handles Apple’s AirPods protocol and publishes device state, while the panel displays per-pod and case battery levels, charging and in-ear status, supported listening modes, adaptive noise level, Conversation Awareness, One-Bud ANC, ear detection, and case-lid state when available. It selects the displayed controls from the capabilities reported by the connected device, supports AirPods earbuds and AirPods Max, and omits functions handled elsewhere in Omarchy, such as volume, audio-output selection, Bluetooth connection management, and input controls.

Codenotch is a macOS app that pins a small notch to a screen edge and displays usage limits, reset windows, and activity states for coding assistants including Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Antigravity, and GLM. It can show whether a provider is working, finished, or waiting for user input, with separate rings for separate Claude Code profiles and live session details on hover. Each provider adapter reads credentials, sessions, logs, databases, language-server RPCs, or provider endpoints already used by the corresponding local tool; Codenotch does not sign in to services itself. A UsageStore polls the adapters, preserves the last good reading across launches, labels each reading by fidelity, and exposes failures as statuses such as stale, needsAuth, or error rather than inventing a percentage. The notch can be placed on any screen edge, expands when approached, and can be configured to show or hide its Dock and menu-bar icons. The app is written for macOS, supports a demo mode with fixed sample data, and uses Sparkle for signed background updates. Its README notes that the provider interfaces may change because some readings come from internal endpoints or local application state. The project is licensed under the MIT License.
