Widgets:
- New Photo Frame widget cycles through a slideshow of your pictures right on the dock.
- Per-instance widget settings in an anchored panel, so each copy of a widget can be configured on its own.

Features:
- Quick actions gained native-parity shortcuts for Safari, Chrome, Brave, Edge, Firefox, VSCode, and Cursor.
- App folders now show per-app running indicators in the grid.
- New preference to tune the autohide animation duration.

Fixes:
- Window cycling now steps through every window of the active app instead of ping-ponging between two.
- The dock now hides for full-axis tiled windows sitting flush against its edge.
- The dock now hides in fullscreen for single-window apps via a fresh accessibility check.
- Minimized tiles now use a cleaner contained placeholder.

What's new:
- App folders can now badge individual apps, with a preference to combine the counts or show them per app, in dot or number style.
- Widgets now request the permissions they need only when you use them, through an in-widget prompt, instead of all upfront.
- Launchpad lets you open right-click menus while searching, and folder items now have a Docky pin toggle.
- Drag and drop keeps its drop regions active even when shelve mode hides Finder and Trash.
- Fixed autohide getting stuck on stale fullscreen bounds after using Mission Control.
- App icons now render sharp instead of looking upscaled.

Docky is now free and open source.

Every feature, including everything that used to require Pro, is free for everyone. There are no paid tiers anymore, and the lifetime license is now free.

- Notification badges on app tiles for running apps
- Fixes window previews not refreshing on focus and missing some minimized windows
- Fixes drag-reorder flicker in Launchpad

What's new:
- Custom widgets are here. Build your own and submit at [getdocky.com/widgets](https://getdocky.com/widgets); see [josejuanqm/docky-widgets](https://github.com/josejuanqm/docky-widgets) for setup instructions
- Profiles let you save a layout per profile, with triggers that auto-switch when a condition matches
- Hidden apps now re-appear when you drag their icon back into the dock
- Dragging a pinned app into the Trash removes it from Docky
- Fixes an issue where dragging files out of the grid view did not dismiss the grid when a folder was opened
- Fixes an issue where folders in list view did not render properly

A more powerful Docky.

Switch windows in an instant, tile your space with a click, and dial Docky in exactly the way you want.

What's new:
- New window switcher with a list mode for setups without screen recording, or anyone who prefers it simple
- Hover any app tile to peek at its windows, with previews tuned per-app
- Tile windows directly from the window picker, the per-app preview, or an app folder's context menu
- Settings revamped with live preview, so changes apply as you tweak them
- Fullscreen apps automatically hide Docky; maximizing a window can hide Docky or reserve its space, your call
- New shelve mode tucks Finder and Trash away when you want a cleaner shelf
- Custom icon folders and custom Trash folders for deeper personalization
- Snappier file dragging and reliability fixes across window enumeration

This release fixes bugs related to drag and drop. Drag-and-drop pinning is reliable again, startup is calmer, and your widgets look cleaner from the smallest tiles to the largest expanded previews.

Improved performance and reliability.

Removed unstable Apple Inteligence auto-tidy.

Updated watchdog service to ensure your dock is never lost when exiting docky.

Widgets that come alive.

Hover to peek, hold to expand — Calendar lays out your agenda, Weather opens to a multi-day forecast, and Now Playing grows into a full media tile.

Plus:
- A Home menu, right where you'd expect it in Finder
- Smoother tile reordering — even with collapsed widgets or hidden apps
- A new Dock watchdog quietly restores your system Dock if Docky ever quits unexpectedly
- Onboarding remembers the permissions you've chosen to skip

Adds open at login on first run.

Added a free trial option so you can test features first before committing

Simplified onboarding ui (sorry)
