    I can't believe I've clang to HyperDock for so long. This is much more stable and supported application!

    DockView is a macOS utility that shows live previews (thumbnails) of an application’s open windows when you hover over its icon in the Dock. You can quickly switch, minimize, or close windows directly from that preview panel — all without altering the system Dock itself.

    Since HyperDock has been abandoned by the developer, I went looking for alternatives to HyperDock and HyperSwitch. I installed the trial version and loved it immediately. Very simple, functional, and beautiful. I bought it after trying it for one day.

    In macOS, the Dock is used as a repository for any program or file in the operating system. It can hold any number of items and resizes them dynamically to fit while using magnification to clarify smaller resized items.
