-
Is DockSwitcher free?
DockSwitcher comes with a free 72-hour trial — no account or credit card required. After the trial, a one-time license unlocks the app permanently on your Mac.
-
Does it modify system files?
DockSwitcher reads and writes the standard macOS Dock plist file and restarts the Dock process to apply changes — the same way macOS manages the Dock internally. No other system files are touched.
-
What macOS version is required?
DockSwitcher requires macOS 13 Ventura or later. Focus Mode integration requires macOS 13 or later.
-
Does it work with Focus Modes?
Yes. You can associate any preset with a Focus Mode in DockSwitcher settings. When that Focus Mode activates, DockSwitcher automatically applies the matching Dock layout.
-
Is the license tied to one Mac?
Each license is for a single Mac. If you use multiple Macs, you need one license per machine. Contact us if you have a specific use case.
-
Can I use keyboard shortcuts to switch presets?
Yes. You can assign a global keyboard shortcut to any preset in DockSwitcher settings, so you can switch your Dock layout instantly from any app.
