pulsebar

A Dynamic Island for Windows.

Time, music, timers and live stats in one small pill at the top of your screen. Hover, and it opens.

Everything, One Keystroke Away.

Press Alt + Space anywhere. Open apps and settings, find files on every drive, or just type what you want, like timer 5m.

Every file on every drive, found in a moment. Enter opens it, Ctrl + Enter opens its folder.

Pause or cancel right from the island.

Your Music, Right at the Top.

A new song slides in with its cover. Then the pill keeps the art and a visualiser that follows the actual sound, from bass to treble.

Volume keys show the level in the pill. The panel’s speaker pops out a slider.

Capture Anything.

Alt + Shift + S freezes the screen: drag an area, click a window, or take it all. It’s copied straight away, and one click opens it for markup.

Arrows, boxes, highlighter, text and pixelate for anything private. Then copy or save.

Alt + Shift + R records the screen with its sound, mic optional.

Gets Out of Your Way.

Browser tabs under the island? It melts into a thin line so you can click them. Rest on the line to bring it back.

Small Things, Done Right.

The little jobs you’d open an app for, a keystroke away.

Alarms

Set one with alarm 7am. A bell sits by the time, and it rings until you stop it.

Notes and Reminders

Type note call mum at 5pm. Notes sit in the panel, and reminders ring right on time.

Your Stats, Your Pick

Pin CPU, memory, GPU, disk, network or free space to the pill. Spikes show up on their own, then leave.

Heads-Ups That Matter

A full drive, low battery, a busy CPU: the island tells you once, then gets out of the way.

Built Native. Stays Light.

Written in Rust on the Windows APIs. No Electron, no hidden browser, no background service.

At Home on Any Monitor.

Pick a screen in Settings, or drag the island there, portrait ones too. It lists that screen’s apps, so a side monitor without a taskbar still has one.

The open panel: search, the time and date, the music player, notes, open apps, and CPU, memory, GPU, disk, network and free space

Questions? Answers.

How Does the Free Trial Work?

You get 24 hours of real use with every feature. The clock only runs while pulsebar is open and you’re using your PC, so leaving it on overnight doesn’t use up your trial.

Does pulsebar Send My Data Anywhere?

Only what the licence needs. During the trial it sends an anonymous ID for your PC and how much trial time you’ve used, so reinstalling doesn’t restart it. When you activate, your key is checked with Lemon Squeezy, who handle payments, and checked again about once a week. The visualiser listens on your PC only. Nothing is recorded or uploaded. Read the privacy policy.

Which Versions of Windows Does It Run On?

Windows 10 and Windows 11, 64-bit.

Can I Move My Licence to a New PC?

Yes. On the old PC, open Settings (right-click the island), go to Licence and choose Deactivate. Then enter your key on the new one.

What If It’s Not for Me?

Ask for a refund within 14 days of buying and you’ll get your money back. Read the refund policy.
