Docky - Pin, group, and remove apps easily from your dock

Docky is a macOS dock replacement that was build to be silently powerful. It mimics the native dock so you feel right at home, with added features that pack a punch. But if you feel like it, you can customize it using your own backgrounds, active indicators and icons. Docky comes with added features like widgets, app folders, window switching and launchpad built in.

Docky is a long time coming. This was one of my dream apps ever since leopard, and Its been in development for quite some time now. This is the beginning of something I can feel proud of.

@josequintero That's awesome to hear you've been waiting for this since Leopard days—that kind of long-term vision usually leads to something really polished. The fact that you've stuck with it through development shows how much you believe in solving this problem.

the mac dock has been the same shape forever, so adding real grouping is a meaningful shift. quick question on the interaction model: when you group, are the apps stacked inline like macos stacks for downloads, or is it a separate flyout panel on click? big difference for muscle memory once you've got 20+ pins.

@hiyamojo You can choose either way, you get 3 options: Grid, List, or Inline

The app doesn’t seem to be working properly on my side. In addition, it appears to have affected system behavior, specifically automatic Dock hiding has stopped working.

I also tried fully removing the app, but the issue persists.


Hope this can be resolved soon, happy to provide more details if needed.

@esgvio happy to work with you on resolving this and any other issue you might have. For starters to restore the dock you could boot docky navigate to settings and disable the toggle that disables the native dock.

The restoration of the dock will now live on a separate helper (upcoming release).

I however Im curious what problems you faced and keen to work with you on resolving them.

There's a discord you can find on the website where we can discuss further.

Thanks!
