Display macOS Dock in Touch Bar.
It's free and open source, and it also brings some minimalistic widgets with it!
This is mostly a personal project which started with the purchase of a TouchBar MacBook. I am implementing everything I find beneficial or useful and yes I do like the TouchBar (despite not the default one).
PockV2 natively supports Apple Silicon but has only been tested on an Intel Mac.
I don't have a support page but I use this project everyday and I like working on it!
- Unzip
- Move Pock to your Applications folder
- Open Pock
- Accept
- If you don't see Pock in your Touch Bar, go to the
Keyboardpane in System Preferences and select "Touch Bar shows App Controls."
If some Control Center widgets (e.g. volume up/down) don't work, please remove the app from Accessability and Screen Recording in System Preferemces and add it again.
If it still doesn't work, remove the app from Applications, reset all premissions by running sudo tccutil reset All in the Terminal, restart, add it again and grant the needed Accessability and Screen Recording permissions again.
The brightness control doesn't work on M1 Macs. The way M1 Macs handle displays is non-standard and buggy. This issue for Monitor Control is one of the more active ones trying to resolve the issue, I will try monitoring it and implementing the fixes the people there might come up with.
Includes five default widgets
Your macOS Dock inside your MacBook's TouchBar, the core widget. It comes with fully-functional badge support so you will not miss any notification. More features can be configured in widget settings along with other preferences. It now includes multi-window support! Enjoy your screen in full-size every time!
Media information at a glance with gestures for media controls included.
| Gesture | Action |
|---|---|
| tap | toggle play/pause |
| swipe left | previous song |
| swipe right | next song |
A handy ESC button is there, just in case, so you don't have to hide Pock to access the system one.
Always keep an eye on system information, like what time is it, or maybe WiFi status or Battery status. Configure Status items from settings. Tap to switch keyboard input, open calendar, battery overview, long click the battery to switch between percentages and time remaining.
Change screen brightness or system volume with easy controls. Long press or slide on control center item to invoke sliders.
More widgets may be added, open an issue/pull request or wait for me to come up with something!
You can adjust Pock and widgets settings to reflects your specific needs. You can access these panes from the Preferences menu item.
You can customize the widget position in TouchBar from the Customize menu item.
