Summary
DockFlow is a macOS utility app that allows users to save multiple Dock presets and switch between them instantly with one click or a hotkey. Created by maker Asaf, the app addresses the friction of manually rearranging the Dock when switching between different work contexts like coding, design, meetings, or personal time. It can also close apps not needed for the current preset and open relevant ones. After a year of development and 70 updates, the app has gained over 1,000 users on Product Hunt.
