How do I set up my Dock layouts with DockFlow?

Click "Add Preset," then either capture your current Dock with "Set from Current Dock" or build one yourself by adding apps. You can also add folders, files, web links, and spacers. Name it and you're done.

Can I assign keyboard shortcuts to switch Dock presets?

Yes. DockFlow supports three types of hotkeys for switching presets: single key shortcuts, key sequences where you press keys one after another, and multi-press where you tap the same key multiple times. You can assign a different hotkey to each preset so you can switch without touching your mouse. Beyond hotkeys, DockFlow also integrates with Apple Shortcuts, so you can automate preset switching based on time of day, calendar events, or other triggers. You can also link presets to macOS Focus modes — for example, activating your "Work" Focus mode can automatically switch to your work Dock preset, and switching to "Personal" loads your personal apps.

What's the difference between DockFlow and other macOS dock apps?

Most Dock apps on macOS are Dock replacements — they create a custom dock that sits on top of or instead of the native macOS Dock. These require deep system permissions and can break with macOS updates. DockFlow takes a fundamentally different approach: it works with your native macOS Dock, not against it. That means no special permissions are needed out of the box, you get full compatibility with every macOS update including macOS Sequoia, and there's zero impact on system performance. DockFlow is also workflow-based rather than cosmetic — it's not about making your Dock look different, it's about making your Dock adapt to what you're actually doing by switching your entire app setup in one action.

Does DockFlow work with multiple monitors?

Yes, and DockFlow includes a feature specifically designed for multi-monitor setups called Lock Dock. On macOS, the Dock can jump from one display to another when you move your mouse to the bottom edge of a different screen — a common frustration for users with two or more monitors. Lock Dock prevents this by anchoring your Dock to the display you choose, so it stays put no matter where your mouse goes. This works alongside preset switching, so you can have your Dock locked to your primary display while freely switching between different app layouts for each workflow. Lock Dock requires the Accessibility permission to monitor mouse position across displays.

How much does DockFlow cost?

DockFlow has a 1-year plan and lifetime plans for one to five Macs. Every plan includes all features and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
