Click the date and time in the menu bar to open Notification Center, and click “Clear All”. On macOS 26 and earlier, you clear each stack: hold the pointer over the clear button of its top notification, and click “Clear All”. macOS has no keyboard shortcut for it. [Supercharge](https://sindresorhus.com/supercharge) clears all notifications, also the banners on the screen, from its menu or with a keyboard shortcut.

## With Supercharge

1. Open [Supercharge](https://sindresorhus.com/supercharge), and give it the access that it asks for in [“Device Control and Data Access”](https://sindresorhus.com/apps/faq#device-control-access).
1. Click its icon in the menu bar, and choose “Clear All Notifications”.
1. For a keyboard shortcut, open the Supercharge settings, click “Shortcuts”, and set a shortcut for “Clear all notifications”.

“Clear Visible Notifications”, next to it in the menu, clears only the banners on the screen. In the settings, “Clear top visible notification” and “Click top visible notification” can also get a keyboard shortcut, to dismiss or open the newest banner.

## Without an app

1. Click the date and time in the menu bar, or swipe left with two fingers from the right edge of the trackpad.
1. Click “Clear All” or “Clear All Notifications”. On macOS 26 and earlier, hold the pointer over the clear button of the top notification of each stack, and click “Clear All”.

To clear one notification, hold the pointer over it, and click its clear button. [Apple’s instructions.](https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/get-notifications-mchl2fb1258f/mac) The built-in way is fine when you clear notifications now and then. Supercharge is faster when you clear them many times a day.
