A PLACE FOR WHAT MATTERS
A native home for the little things that make a day feel effortless.
A familiar place for your favorite apps.
Search and pin your favorite apps. Keep useful widgets beside them. Turn on replacement mode to put DockGrove at the bottom edge, where your Dock belongs.
Go full screen and DockGrove steps out of view. Come back to your desktop and your tools are right where you left them.
Halves, quarters, a little more room, or the whole display. Arrange a window in a click, with Undo when you change your mind.
A CLEARER VIEW OF AI
Bring your AI tools into view, with honest labels for allowances, session activity, and API usage.
Weekly and session windows, read locally from Claude Code’s supported status line.
Connect the local status line for supported Claude Pro and Max allowance windows. No browser cookies or account password needed.
Provider availability varies. Gemini session tokens are not a remaining subscription quota. API reports require the provider’s credentials.
YOUR DOCK. YOUR RHYTHM.
A workspace for focus. A space for music.
Built around the way you work.
Keep up to four independent docks, each with its own widgets, display, theme and position. Choose a bottom edge, top edge, or a floating home.

DISTINCTLY YOURS
Quietly monochrome. A hint of color.
Or an accent that is entirely you.
Pearl. A little understated.
Automatic follows your Mac. Native glass where supported, translucent material elsewhere.

A LITTLE COMPANY
Nine pixel-art animals, each with a shape and rhythm of their own.
They wander, blink, settle down and sleep while you work.
Siamese curiosity
A little midnight company
A warm-hearted tabby
Always happy to see you
A bright-eyed explorer
A little flight of fancy
Taking the day slowly
A soft spot for small hops
Quietly curious
Walking and flight previews from the app’s actual artwork. Animations pause when you prefer reduced motion.
YOUR MAC. YOUR CONTROL.
Notes and voice memos stay on your Mac. API keys stay in Keychain. Connect only the widgets you want, and grant permissions when a feature needs them.

Replacement mode places DockGrove at the bottom edge and hides Apple’s Dock while DockGrove is running. It restores your original Dock preferences when you quit or choose Restore Apple Dock. Native Handoff, arbitrary notification badges and system-wide reserved window space are not fully reproduced. You can also use DockGrove without enabling replacement mode.
DockGrove targets macOS 14 or later and includes Apple silicon and Intel binaries. This early-access build has been tested on the development Mac; every macOS version and monitor arrangement has not been certified.
The proposed price is $9.99 once for major version 1, its maintenance updates, and up to three personal Macs. No subscription. Future major upgrades are separate. Checkout is disabled while the commercial release is prepared. Existing copies of the earlier MIT release keep their original permissions.
Codex reports account allowances. Claude Code can supply supported allowance windows through its local status line. Gemini CLI reports session token activity from a JSON report, not remaining chat quota. OpenAI and Claude API widgets show organization tokens; Cursor reports team activity. Each connection identifies its data source and setup requirements.
It is an early-access preview. The app is not Apple-notarized yet, some integrations require account setup, and it does not offer every feature of commercial Dock apps. Read the setup guide and known limitations before installing.
