What's new in Pock 0.9.0

Sep 30, 2021
  • Pock's mission is to provide an ecosystem that makes it easy for users and developers to get the most out of their Touch Bars, extending the power of an often underrated tool.
  • That's why the new version is a complete rewrite based on the scratch project. It now includes a reliable way to update your preferred widgets directly from the Widgets Manager pane in just one click alongside many sneaky bug fixes!

  • To let you enjoy this new capability, I've also released a new version of Dock Widget that brings a new logic for hiding/disabling on-screen Dock.
  • It also fixes a crash that may occur if you interact with the cursor inside directories/app-exposé.
