Use Case

Show Dock on All Screens on macOS

macOS cannot show Dock on all screens at once: the native Dock appears on only one display at a time, even with "Displays have separate Spaces" turned on.

ExtraDock mirrors the native Dock to every connected screen, or you can give each monitor its own Dock.

ExtraDock also adds folder stacks, a file shelf and window previews.

Can macOS show the Dock on all screens?

No. Apple's Dock shows on one display at a time and moves when you push the pointer to the bottom of another screen. There is no setting to show it everywhere.

The menu bar reached every screen in OS X Mavericks. The Dock did not.

If the Dock is missing on a monitor, push the pointer past that screen's bottom edge, or check that auto-hide and full-screen apps are not hiding it.

Can each monitor have a different dock?

Yes. Assign each dock to a display under Screens > Known Screens, and every monitor keeps its own apps and layout.

To show one dock on every screen instead:

  1. Select a dock in the Manager.
  2. Open Screens and turn on Show on All Screens.
  3. Open Position and pick pinned or floating.

Added Quality of Life

ExtraDock is full of small quality of life features designed to improve your workflow:

  • Widgets: add widgets like a clock, quick-access folder stacks, and more
  • App preview: hover over an app to see a preview of its open windows
  • Drag and drop: drop a file on a dock folder to move it there
  • Shelf: hold files there while you move between windows

Customize Without Limits

iF yOu WaNt CuStOm, jUsT uSe LiNuX

Wrong. If you want customizability, just use ExtraDock.

Every dock could be unique. Give each project, screen, or mood its own identity.

Swap the app icons, match your wallpaper, or go full chaos. Do whatever makes you happy, they're your docks.

Position

Your dock doesn't have to live at the bottom. Put a dock on any screen, any edge, or let it float.

  • Snap docks to an edge or let them float anywhere
  • Go horizontal or vertical, your call
  • Assign each dock to its own screen
  • When a display disconnects, its docks hide automatically and return to their exact spot the moment it's back

Behavior

Your docks, on their best behavior. There when you need them, gone when you don't.

  • Auto-hide when not in use, reappear on hover
  • Collapse a dock into a single button
  • Hide on fullscreen, or always visible
  • Each dock has its own behavior settings

Widgets

Apps are just the start. Widgets bring your dock to life.

  • Clock, Shelf, App Folders and more
  • Docks that know which Space you're in and what's running
  • Drag and drop files into folders, right from your dock
  • Meet TamaDocky. Your dock has a pet now.

Wall of Love

Don't take our word for it… Take theirs

Extradock has enjoyed, and will continue to enjoy, my rave support. When it comes to creating multiple docks, there is no other app that not only does this but also adds a massive amount of functionality. If your aim is countless docks, there are options. If your aim is countless docks with incredible customisation and placement anywhere on screen, there is only Extradock that has created this functionality and continues to lead the way. I fully endorse this app.

Just bought the app and I'm loving it so far! I already found the Effects section where you can add things like snowflakes or fireworks as background animations — great feature!

Didn’t know this app existed, I’m using two monitors (one for figma and indesign, and the 2nd monitor for entertainment like youtube and spotify) so this docks will help to organize my main app that I’m using frequently. Thank you! 🙏

I love this app so much! I'm using it like a launcher. I group my apps into ctegories and put many docks on my desktop.

Really hyped to follow along this journey! :D Every time I open my app updater and spot ExtraDock, I get super excited because legit every single time there's something made smoother or generally better, and because I use the extra docks (ha) all the time, it's super noticeable. Really appreciate all the hard work and again, really excited for what's to come! ❤️✨

ExtraDock is my favorite launcher/switcher to use when I am remoted into my mothership machine. It makes things manageable when I am trying to use 27-inch displays via a 15-inch MBA.

This is a great solution to a problem that drives me nuts. The worst for me is when I accidentally get the Dock from my MBP onto the secondary display and have to get it back down on the MBP. Awesome app idea

Another excellent update to an already amazing app from a company that does customisation incredibly well. Thinking about trying the app, take it for a test run - I have been very impressed.
