Widgets for your Mac’s Dock.
Dockspace adds a bar of live widgets to the Dock’s row: the time, the weather, your next meeting, CPU and battery, the clipboard and 168 more. They update as you work, and ten of them stay free.

Where the bar sits
Choose in Settings › Dock:
- Replace the Dock, the default: Dockspace hides the macOS Dock and shows your apps and the Trash in its own bar, next to your widgets. The setting is still marked beta. How it works.
- Beside the Dock. Widgets fill the empty room left and right of the macOS Dock, in its row, so the bar takes no space. If they do not fit, the bar goes above the Dock.
- Above the Dock, as a second row, or pinned to the left or right bezel as a vertical side Dock.
Unlike top-bar utilities whose icons vanish behind the MacBook notch, Dockspace keeps CPU, memory, network and battery readable in the Dock row — making it a clean iStat Menus alternative as well as one of the best macOS Dock replacements.
The bar stays on screen, or hides like the Dock. When it hides, move the pointer to the screen edge or press ⌃⌥⌘D. It can also come up for a few seconds when something needs you: an agent that waits, a meeting in two minutes, or water that is due.
Ten stay free
The free version keeps these for good: Dock Buddy, Disk Doctor, Clock, Date, Weather, CPU, Battery, the clipboard shelf, Folders and the Wallpaper tile.
Pro unlocks all the others, the Claude, Codex and Antigravity limits and the agents board, Screen Notes, Quick Translate and profiles: One Year at $11.99 a year, Lifetime from $19.99 once, or the Forever Edition at $49.99.
Make the bar yours
Right-click the bar and choose Customize Dock… to add widgets. Drag them to reorder.
Every tile starts on a 56-point height and can be resized from 1 to 4 columns wide and 1 or 2 rows tall so the bar lines up cleanly. Some tiles widen for their moment and narrow after it: Focus when a phase ends, Water when a glass is due, your next meeting as it starts. On macOS 26 Tahoe the tiles are frosted glass on a clear Liquid Glass bar.
With Pro, make a profile for the laptop and one for the desk. Dockspace switches between them when you connect or disconnect a display.
What stays on your Mac
Your agents, clipboard and files stay on your Mac. Only widgets that need the internet call public services, such as Open-Meteo for weather and air quality, exchange rates and Hacker News. There is no account.

Common questions
- Which Mac Dock widgets stay free forever in Dockspace?
- Ten widgets stay free with no time limit: Dock Buddy, Disk Doctor, Clock, Date, Weather, CPU, Battery, the Notch Clipboard Shelf, Folders and the live Wallpaper tile, alongside Replace the Dock.
- Can I resize widgets or put them on the left or right side of my screen?
- Yes. Right-click any tile or use Customize Dock to resize widgets from 1 to 4 columns wide and 1 to 2 rows tall on a 56pt grid. Set Edge to Left or Right for a compact vertical side Dock that expands tiles on hover or live alerts.
- Why put CPU, battery and weather in the Dock instead of the macOS menu bar?
- On notched MacBooks, menu bar icons disappear behind the camera housing as soon as you open an app with wide menus. The Dock row has the full width of your display and never clips your live stats.
- Does Dockspace replace the macOS Dock or work beside it?
- Both. By default it hides Apple's Dock and shows your pinned apps, running apps and Trash next to your widgets. Prefer Apple's Dock? Switch to Beside the Dock or Above the Dock in one click.
Free to start. Yours to keep.
