Dock Captain
Your apps, within reach on every display.
At a glance
Give every Mac display a convenient place to launch apps and open files. Organize your launcher your way and, with Accessibility permission, send new windows to the screen you choose.
Built for the way you work
Make the most of every display
Work across screens with nearby access to apps on each display.
Keep your apps organized
Build a consistent launcher layout with pages, folders and drag-and-drop.
Open windows where you want them
Get newly launched apps onto the display where you are working more quickly.
Try a fresh layout
Receive layout suggestions, preview them before applying and restore earlier versions.
Features
A Dock for multiple displays
Keep app and file shortcuts nearby on each display, reducing searching and movement across screens.
A launcher with pages, folders and drag-and-drop
Organize frequently used apps and files into a launcher layout that suits you.
Window movement and display selection
Move newly launched app windows to a selected display after granting Accessibility permission.
Preview AI layouts. Undo anytime.
AI generates candidate layouts only. Preview before applying and restore previous local layout versions.
How it works
Scan
Read available apps and user-authorized file shortcuts locally.
Organize your launcher
Arrange the launcher using pages, folders and drag-and-drop.
Choose a display
Decide which display apps should launch and appear on.
Preview and apply
Inspect a candidate layout before applying it, and restore an earlier version when needed.
You stay in control
Window control requires explicit permission
Moving other apps' windows requires macOS Accessibility permission, which you can manage in System Settings.
Suggestions, not automatic changes
AI cannot automatically delete, uninstall or hide apps, access files or execute local tools.
File paths stay private
Candidate layouts use temporary anonymous identifiers. App paths, usernames and document names are not sent to the model.

Common questions
Is Dock Captain a traditional single-window app?
No. It mainly runs as a menu-bar app and background helper, providing a Dock, launcher and window layout tools across displays.
Why does moving windows require Accessibility permission?
macOS requires Accessibility authorization to control other apps' windows. Final stability must be validated with a properly signed release.
Will AI read filenames, window titles or app paths?
No. Candidate layouts use temporary anonymous identifiers, with real-path mappings kept in local memory. AI cannot automatically delete, uninstall or continually move apps.
Can I download it now?
There is no public download yet. Multi-display compatibility, permission lifecycles, signing, notarization and secure updates still require release validation.
