Thank you!

Glad to hear! Yes, the problem is more complex on the iPhone. Hope they will improve that in the future.

Hey! First, thank you so much for supporting DockFlow. Really appreciated! And second, thank you for the great feedback. The first thing that I did was copy this to my tasks board. I will try to reply to everything here, But maybe it will also be best if you send me a message to my email, So if I have future questions, we will be able to talk easily there. You can contact me at: appitstudio@gmail.com Ok, let's start:

1. VISIBLE NAME OF DOCK - I think the best solution is to allow you to add it to the menu bar icon (Need to see how it will look like this can be tricky) Of course, it will be optional and toggleable in the settings menu. I will check for any other solution, but I want to avoid requiring more permissions for DockFlow or building something that will impact the Mac's performance.

2. APP GROUP DIVIDERS - I am not sure that I understand this request. Right now, you can manage spaces in the DockFlow UI, You can add a small or big spacer anywhere you want in the Dock. So this should be a solution for this request, no? Or am I missing something?

3. HIDE AND UNHIDE APPS - I will check it out, again, I want to prevent as many as possible from overwriting Apple's default Mac behaviors to make DockFlow with minimal impact and permission needed to run

4. DIFFERENT DOCKS ON DIFFERENT SPACES - When you say different spaces, do you mean focus modes? Or different desktops? Anyway, DockFlow has built-in CLI integration and Apple Shortcuts integration, so maybe you can create a custom automation that will get you the right flow that you need. I am planning to build a small website that will allow DockFlow users to share automation, presets, hotkeys recommendations, etc.

5. MULTIPLE DOCKS AS A SET - What do you mean by Dock Set

6. DEFAULT LAUNCH DOCK, ON BOOT UP - Nice idea! I will check the possibilities.

Thank you so much for this valuable feedback . Hope I will be able to bring more solutions that will solve your problems.

Hey, First, thank you! And yes You can use a built-in command line tool and add an alias for it for better syntax. I will soon add a way to add aliases using the DockFlow UI.

You can also use the integration with the Apple Shortcuts app.

For using the DockFlowCLI, just run: /Applications/DockFlow.app/Contents/MacOS/DockFlowCLI --help

Hey, Of course, you can create all this app functionality using Dockutil. This is the tool that DockFlow uses under the hood. It also supports direct Dock terminal commands for some users for whom Dockutil doesn't work well. But I think having everything in an easy-to-use UI (including managing spaces, files, and folders in one place) is a much better solution for most users. This is like running OLLAMA on the terminal or using one of the many UI wrappers out there. Thank you for the feedback, of course, and I invite you to check DockFlow and see if it gives you a better solution than a bash script

Yes, I can understand you. Before building DockFlow, I found this mostly annoying instead of helpful. But now, using it, I am able to make it a little productivity tool and a focus-shifting helper. Also, I found out about the folders, links, and spacers, so for some projects, it is nice to have all the important links and folders right there when I need them instead of searching on Finder. I also want to build a Raycast integration, I hope to finish it soon.

Alright, I’ll take a look!

No permissions needed, not a Dock replacement, using the native macOS Dock, and wanted to keep it as simple as possible. No data is sent to my servers or any third-party server. All works offline except for the license key validation. Feel free to ask any questions, I will be glad to answer. Thank you for showing interest in DockFlow.

Thanks I wasn’t sure if it was possible to manipulate the dock like that without some kind of special permissions like are needed for menu bar customization (accessibility, screen recording, etc). These days I just don't use apps that require those unless they're extremely well known/trusted (and even then...)

This looks like it’s potentially great for my use case. I currently have spacers to separate groups of apps in my dock, but many of those apps I only use in specific situations (things like a bunch of IDEs I don't need when I'm not programming).

I'm going to give this a shot. Thanks.

Thank you! I understand you well. I tried to do my best while building it to prevent creating any features requiring special permissions. Let me know if you managed to try it. You can also manage spacers, files, and links using the DockFlow UI, so it can help you with every layout that you will need.

One suggestion, you should add some info about the lack of permission use to the landing page. I’m sure I’m not the only one that assumed it needed some and there’s no demo to confirm before buying.

You are totally right, I will add it as soon as possible.

Thank you Glad you liked it. Custom app shortcut is out of the project scope. I want it to stay a simple and Dock-focused solution. But thanks to the CLI tool baked into the DockFlow app and the Shortcut integration, you can maybe create some automation rules that will trigger even Shortcut changes when the dock preset is changed.

Hey, Glad you liked it and share the same thought about this problem DockFlow doesn't need any special permission to work. When you install it, you will automatically have the option in the Apple Shortcuts app to integrate with it (like every other app that allows this type of integration, this is not permission-related). DockFlow works totally offline (except to validate the license key), and no data is sent to my server or a third-party server. Feel free to ask any questions about it. I will be glad to answer

Hey, DockFlow dosn't replace the macOS Dock so no, Maybe I will try to build integration with other solutions that are replacing the Dock and allow multiple Docks on different screens. I built it to be as simple as possible without impacting the mac performances to I keep the native macOS dock. Thanks for showing interest
