If you work on a Mac with two or more displays, you know this moment. You reach for a button at the bottom of a window, or just hover near the menu bar of your second screen, and the Dock teleports across monitors. Not where you left it. Not where you want it.
macOS has shipped this behavior with no setting to disable it. The Dock follows your cursor's bottom edge — and any UI element low in any window becomes a trigger. Every jump is an interruption: you stop, hunt for the right screen, find the icon you wanted, and try to remember what you were doing.
DockSolo fixes it. One click in the menu bar, pick your screen, the Dock stays there. Forever.
What it does
- Pins the macOS Dock to the display of your choice
- Remembers your preference across reboots and reconnects
- Falls back to the main display when your preferred screen is disconnected, then restores when it comes back
What it doesn't do
- No telemetry. No cloud. No account.
- No subscription. Ever.
- Doesn't modify the native Dock — just holds it in place.
Specs
- macOS 13 Ventura or later
- Universal Binary: Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4) + Intel
