Work, personal and every client account, each with its own icon. Click one and you are back in the window you already had open — not a new one. Plus Windows-style snap layouts, one-click window focus, and drag-to-top sharing. All of it about as hard as saying okie dockie.
Free to download and use. Chrome profile Dock icons are $19, one payment.
Each replaces an app you would otherwise buy on its own, and none needs setting up beyond a tick box.
Work, personal, and every client account — each with its own icon and profile photo, sitting in the Dock beside Chrome itself.
Clicking one switches to the window that profile already has open. Clicking again cycles through its other windows. Launching Chrome with a profile flag only ever opens new windows; Okie Dockie tracks which window belongs to which profile and raises the right one.
On macOS the first click on an inactive window is spent activating it. Copying a cell from one window into another costs you a click every single time.
Okie Dockie gives the window under your pointer focus as you arrive, so your click lands where you aimed it. Focus only — never stacking. Windows stay exactly where you put them.
Drag a window to the top of the screen and pick a layout: two side by side, three columns, one tall pane beside two stacked, four quadrants, or four columns across a wide display. Okie Dockie then offers your other windows to fill the slots that are still empty.
Or skip the mouse entirely — ⌃⌥← ⌃⌥→ for halves, ⌃⌥2 ⌃⌥3 ⌃⌥4 to tile the frontmost windows.
The same gesture, with a file instead of a window: drag it to the top of the screen and a tray of destinations drops down. Release it onto one.
The list is macOS's own — the same destinations Finder's Share menu offers, so anything you install that can receive files simply appears. Okie Dockie adds Copy to Folder, and reaches apps like WhatsApp that Finder leaves out.
Nothing to configure, nothing in the background, nothing phoning home. A utility you leave on all day should cost you nothing.
One shared event tap, no polling timers, nothing running while you are idle.
One call to activate your licence. After that it runs entirely offline and never phones home.
Most of it costs nothing. The Chrome profile Dock icons are the paid part.
Download and use the free version for as long as you like. Pay once when you want Chrome profiles in your Dock.
It is the only API macOS provides for seeing and moving other apps' windows, and every feature depends on it. Okie Dockie makes no network connections and never reads window contents. Revoke it any time and the app simply stops acting.
No. Focus moves to the window under your pointer while stacking is left alone. One exception: Chrome ignores focus changes that do not reorder, so hovering between two Chrome windows will not switch them.
Chrome, plus its Beta, Dev and Canary channels. Safari cannot be supported — it accepts no profile argument and exposes no profile list, so no app can do this for Safari.
No, and it cannot be. The App Store requires sandboxing, which forbids reading another app's windows, writing to the Dock, and creating the profile launchers — the features people buy this for.
Nearly everything: snap layouts, one-click window focus, the drag-to-top share tray and the keyboard shortcuts — free, no account, no expiry. The one paid feature is giving each Chrome profile its own Dock icon.
Whatever macOS offers for that file — the same list as Finder's Share menu, which you control in System Settings under Login Items & Extensions. Apps that ship a Share Extension appear automatically. Okie Dockie also reaches WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack and Discord, which ship none.
Three at a time. Paste the key on each Mac and it claims a seat — there is no account and no password, the key is all you need. Moving to a new machine? Choose Deactivate This Mac in the licence window and the seat is free again.
Reactivating the same Mac never uses a second seat. And if the licence server cannot be reached, Okie Dockie keeps working for 14 days while it retries — a server problem of ours should never stop you working.
