Summary

Stash is a macOS utility that adds a hidden side pocket to the Mac Dock, allowing users to store up to 6 apps they use occasionally but not frequently enough to keep permanently visible. The app runs from the menu bar, feels native to macOS, and reveals hidden apps with a quick hover. It includes a 24-hour free trial and is designed for macOS Tahoe. The article is a Product Hunt launch post by the maker, describing the problem of Dock clutter and how Stash solves it.
