Save, switch, and automate Dock layouts for every workflow
DockFlow is a Dock utility that lets you save and swap between different macOS Dock presets. Set up one for design, another for coding, another for writing. One click to switch, close the apps you don't need, and open the ones you do. I built this because I kept wasting the first few minutes of every session dragging icons back into place before I could actually work. Now I pick my context, and I'm already in my workflow. A year and 70 updates in, over 1,000 people use it.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I’m Asaf, the maker of DockFlow - a macOS app that lets you save multiple Dock presets and switch between them instantly when you change context (coding, meetings, design, personal time, etc.).
The idea came from constantly dragging apps in and out of the Dock whenever I jumped between projects and wanting that switch to be a single, reliable action instead.
With DockFlow you can:
Save dedicated Dock layouts (“presets”) for different workflows.
Switch presets with one click from the menu bar or a custom hotkey, and optionally close apps that don’t belong to the current preset so you stay focused.
Include apps, folders, and files, use spacers to visually group tools, and keep everything running on the native macOS Dock (no custom dock or extra permissions).
Save your last context when switching presets - allows you to get back right to your latest tasks when needed.
For power users, automate Dock changes with Shortcuts or the CLI so your Dock can adapt based on time of day or other triggers.
Since our first launch we’ve shipped a lot of improvements, including better menu bar access to settings, more robust hotkey handling, support for folder stacks, app actions, and multiple stability fixes to keep DockFlow reliable in daily use.
Thanks for checking out DockFlow.
I’ll be here all day answering questions, collecting ideas, and iterating based on your feedback 🙏
