Question 1

Does ExtraDock slow down my Mac?

Accepted Answer

No. ExtraDock is designed to be lightweight and non-intrusive. It doesn't consume significant CPU or memory resources, so you can run multiple floating docks without worrying about performance.

Question 2

Which versions of macOS does ExtraDock support?

Accepted Answer

ExtraDock supports macOS 12 or later. We're continuously testing on the latest releases to ensure compatibility. If you have a specific version you're unsure about, feel free to contact support.

Question 3

How do I add apps to extraDock?

Accepted Answer

Simply drag and drop the .app file from your Applications folder (or anywhere else) into the dock. Once placed, clicking an app icon instantly launches or brings that app's window to the front.

Question 4

How do I add folders to extraDock?

Accepted Answer

Simply drag and drop the folder from your Finder window (or anywhere else) into the dock. Once placed, clicking the folder icon will open the folder in Finder.

Question 5

Can I change a dock's orientation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can flip orientation from horizontal to vertical (and vice versa) in one click. To reposition a dock, just drag it around your screen—it'll gently snap to the nearest edge.

Question 6

Can I hide or show docks on-demand?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You can temporarily hide any dock from your screen if you need a cleaner workspace. Show it again whenever you're ready—your app icons remain saved.

Can I keep the macOS native Dock active at the same time?
