DualDock
DualDock gives your second display a familiar Dock while respecting full-screen apps. When one display enters full screen, DualDock stays available on the other. When both displays are full screen, it gets out of the way.
Local and Private by Design
- DualDock does not require an account or internet connection.
- DualDock does not collect analytics, diagnostics, or personal information.
- DualDock reads your Dock layout locally and never modifies your Dock preferences.
- App icons, running state, display state, and settings remain on your Mac.
Feature overview
A familiar Dock on both displays
DualDock follows the apps and order in your macOS Dock, including running indicators, folders, Downloads, and Trash.
Full-screen aware
Use full screen on one display and keep a Dock on the other. Put both displays in full screen and DualDock hides on both.
Native macOS glass
System materials, real app icons, notification badges, and Dock-style spacing keep the second Dock at home on your desktop.
Click, launch, and switch
Open apps, bring running apps forward, and use your Dock folders directly from the display in front of you.
Matches your Dock settings
DualDock follows your icon size, app order, and recent-app preference automatically while staying at the bottom of the available display.
Private by design
No account, analytics, ads, tracking, or cloud service. DualDock reads Dock preferences locally and never modifies them.
Common questions
What Mac setup does DualDock require?+
DualDock requires macOS 14 or later and is designed for Macs using two displays.
Will DualDock cover full-screen video or games?+
No. DualDock hides on a display while that display has a full-screen app. If only one display is full screen, it remains available on the other; if both are full screen, it hides on both.
Does DualDock replace or change the system Dock?+
No. It supplements the system Dock and reads its layout locally. DualDock does not modify your macOS Dock preferences.
Is DualDock a subscription?+
No. DualDock is a one-time $3.99 purchase with no subscription or in-app purchases.
Why does macOS ask about opening DualDock at login?+
Open at Login keeps DualDock available after you sign in. DualDock asks first, and you can disable the login item at any time in System Settings.
