One Dock icon per project, with its apps, files, folders and links together
Details
What is OtterDock?
OtterDock groups the apps, files, folders and web links you use for one project, client or routine into a single icon in your Mac Dock. Hover over it or click it to open the group, launch everything in the group at once, or give each group its own global keyboard shortcut. Groups are also available as desktop and Notification Center widgets and as Shortcuts actions. Your groups are stored only on your Mac. Free: 2 groups with up to 8 items each. Pro is a one-time $6.99 purchase: unlimited groups and items, a Pro skin, and per-group rules for which app opens each file or link. The direct download edition has the hover popup, shortcuts and open-with rules; the Mac App Store edition uses the native Dock folder stack. macOS 14 or later.
