DockLock keeps the Dock panel fixed on the selected monitor. The free version allows manual docking, while the paid version lets you configure available screens.
When working with multiple monitors, there’s one annoying issue—the Dock panel can jump between screens at random. This can be really distracting and make you want to scroll through TikTok instead of working.
You can solve this problem with DockLock, a utility that lets you choose which monitors should display the Dock panel.
There are two versions of the app: DockLock Lite (free) and DockLock+ ($9.99).
On the left is the free version, and on the right is the paid version.
- The free version has no settings—the Dock stays fixed on one monitor, but you have to manually move it to the desired screen.
- The paid version allows you to select specific monitors for the Dock via settings or a hotkey.
Important Notes:
- DockLock only works when the Dock is positioned at the bottom of the screen.
- You need at least two monitors for it to function properly.
