Introducing DockPanel

Tired of digging through Launchpad or scrolling through your Applications folder? DockPanel puts every app on your Mac one click away, organized exactly how you want.

Find Any App, Fast

Browse all your installed apps in a clean, alphabetical list with a vertical A–Z scrubber for instant jumping. Filter by category — Developer Tools, Productivity, Games, and more — to narrow things down. Recently installed something? It's already there.

Pin Your Favorites

Pin the apps you use most to the top for instant access. Reorder them with a right-click. Choose whether pinned apps get their own dedicated section or stay mixed into the full list.

Smart Tabs That Learn How You Work

  • All Apps — Every app on your Mac, sorted and searchable

  • Pinned — Your hand-picked favorites

  • Most Used — Automatically ranked by how often you launch each app

  • Recents — The last apps you opened, always up to date

  • Choose which tab opens first, or let DockPanel remember where you left off.

  • Folder Shortcuts at Your Fingertips

Access Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Movies, Pictures, and more from the sidebar — no Finder window required. Show or hide each shortcut to keep things tidy.

Looks Right at Home

DockPanel follows your system appearance automatically, or lock it to Light, Dark, or Accent mode with a tunable color intensity slider. The panel positions itself next to your Dock — bottom, left, or right — wherever you keep it.
