Take control of your Mac dock — design multiple setups, switch with hot keys or automation with apple shortcuts app, and boost productivity with Dockify.
👋 Hey everyone!
I built Dockify because my own Mac dock had become overwhelming — I juggle design, coding, and a bit of gaming, and all those apps piled into one dock made it messy and distracting.
Dockify solves that by letting you create separate dock setups for different workflows. I use one for design, one for coding, and one for gaming — each minimal, focused, and easy to switch between.
This is for anyone who wants a cleaner, more intentional Mac experience, whether you’re working, studying, or just relaxing. I’d love to hear how you’d set up your own custom docks!

Hi, I love the idea! It would be nice to have a set of apps which will be automatically in every dock, like Mail or the browser.
I think I found some possible bugs though:
The screen blinks black when switching the dock for a moment, I'm on M1 Pro. Is that normal?
The app does not show apps installed only for my user in ~/Applications. I tried to create a symlink in /Applications dir but no luck.
When I'm editing a dock and I press modifier key with something, it changes the Shortcut Activation key though I was not in the input context (not sure that's intentional), but then I'm unable to set the previously saved hotkey because it only triggers the dock switch.
I'm unable to unset the shortcut, when i delete the input value and save it still has the original value.
Congrats on the launch!
I often switch between work and personal modes—does Dockify support syncing setups across multiple Macs?
Apple Shortcuts integration and global hotkeys make it frictionless. It could become a quiet powerhouse for focused workflows.
dock organization is such a game changer for mac productivity, love how clean this makes switching between work and personal setups
love the concept of workflow-specific docks - would save me so much time switching contexts :))
@offfwhitedesign Congrats on the launch. Dockify looks like a neat way to keep the Mac dock clean and productive.
THIS is what I didn't know I needed! I constantly switch between coding, design, and admin work - having different dock setups for each context would be incredible. The hotkey switching is clever.
Just launched ZenTrack today too (AI productivity app) - we actually track "context switching" as a productivity killer. Dockify could literally reduce the friction that tanks focus sessions.
Huge congrats on launching Dockify today! It looks like such a clever solution for anyone wanting more control over their Mac dock. The immediate switching with hotkeys and Apple Shortcuts integration sounds incredibly powerful for streamlining different workflows throughout the day – I can definitely see myself using this to jump between creative and focused work modes. My biggest question is, how are you planning to visually demonstrate the sheer variety of dock setups users can craft, and are there any specific aesthetic customization features you're excited to build out next? Wishing you all the best!
