Paper, Bright & Dark
Notch is designed around warm paper surfaces, quiet contrast, and solid editorial accents rather than distracting gradients. Try switching modes above or below.

Dark Mode

OLED night ink ground with softened off-white typography for late-night focus.
The Shared Neutral Surface Palette
Derived straight from Surfaces.swift in the codebase, the same design tokens define Notch, Deets, Prexy, and Jottle. The selection bar and accents follow the theme you pick, while each task’s real Reminders list colour still marks it wherever lists are mixed together.
