DockFix

DockFixとは？

DockFix is a macOS utility that replaces the system Dock while it is running and adds controls that Apple’s Dock does not provide. Users can configure its appearance, layout, icons, animations, folders, website shortcuts, and presets while retaining familiar Dock behavior such as magnification and liquid-glass styling.

Beyond visual customization, DockFix adds widgets, live window previews, and a file shelf to the Dock. Community Docks can be installed in one click as ready-made configurations. The app is available for macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon and Intel Macs, uses under 1% CPU on average, and restores the system Dock when it is quit.

利用シーン

“Personalize a Mac workspace”

Users who find the standard Dock restrictive can change its visual treatment, placement, animations, and app icons to match their preferred desktop setup.

“Switch between windows quickly”

People working across several windows can hover over an app in the Dock, inspect its live previews, and jump directly to the required window.

“Keep controls and destinations nearby”

Users can place media controls, the clock, shortcuts, folders, and website links in the Dock instead of opening separate apps or searching for common destinations.

“Start from a shared configuration”

Anyone who wants a themed or structured setup without configuring every option manually can install a community Dock and use its complete layout.

“Try before committing”

New users can install DockFix, use every feature for seven days without a card, and retain their settings if they purchase a licence during or after the trial.
