dockey

Dockey is a lightweight macOS utility that provides a visual interface for adjusting advanced Dock settings that are normally hidden behind Terminal commands. It lets users modify animation speed, hide‑behavior, layout options and other preferences, and shows a live preview of each change before it is saved, allowing safe experimentation without needing to remember or type defaults commands.

The app targets macOS power users, developers and designers who want finer control over the Dock’s appearance and behavior but prefer a graphical tool over the command line. By presenting hidden options in a clean, native macOS window, Dockey removes the guesswork and risk of syntax errors associated with manual Terminal edits.

Compatible with macOS 10.13 and newer on both Intel and Apple Silicon, Dockey offers a simple way to customize the Dock, preview results instantly, and restore defaults at any time.
