    20+ Mac moments, and zero permission prompts. He listens to your Mac, never to you.

  • Never the same twice

  • Knows when to hush

    Quiet on calls, during quiet hours, or for an hour when you say so.

Your Mac came with one charging sound. Noisy brings 1.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Something else? Email thisdudestartedsomething@gmail.com. A human answers.

What do I need?
A Mac running macOS 14 Sonoma or later, Apple Silicon or Intel. Charger and battery triggers need a MacBook; everything else works on any Mac.
What permissions does Noisy Laptop need? What does it collect?
None, and nothing. Noisy Laptop reacts to system notifications (power, sleep, devices, network), so there are no Accessibility, microphone or screen-recording prompts. For calls it only checks whether your camera or mic is in use, and never records or listens. No analytics. The only thing that ever leaves your Mac is your license key and Mac name, sent to Lemon Squeezy when you activate Pro.
Does it play when my Mac is muted?
No. It plays through your normal sound output at a volume relative to your system volume, so muted means quiet. You can also set quiet hours, only-with-headphones, or pause it for an hour. Meeting mode (on by default) silences it while your camera or mic is live.
Can I use Pro on more than one Mac?
Yes — it's a personal license for the Macs you own. Switching Macs? Open Noisy Laptop → License → Deactivate on the old one, then activate on the new one.
Can I get a refund?
Not happy? Email thisdudestartedsomething@gmail.com and we'll sort it out. No quiz.
What sound packs are there?
12 of them, 234 sounds in all. Popular: Meme, Moan, Fart, Glaze, Cringe, Animals. Chill: Classic, Lo-fi. Energy: Arcade, Rave, Hype Man, Cartoon. Classic is free. Pro unlocks the rest, plus Shuffle, which picks a random pack every time you plug in.
Can I use my own sounds?
With Pro, yes. Drop in your own audio files and assign them to any trigger, next to (or instead of) the built-in sound packs.
Is the free version actually free?
Yes. Charger connected and disconnected with the Classic sound pack, forever. You can preview every sound in all 12 packs without paying.
How do I uninstall it?
Menu bar icon → Quit Noisy Laptop, then drag it from Applications to the Trash. If you have Pro and are moving Macs, deactivate first.
