Releases
DockLens 1.0.12
What's new
- Redesigned Settings. The Settings window now uses a sidebar like macOS System Settings: General (app info and updates), Appearance, Behavior, Recently closed and Permissions.
- Permission rows show their status at a glance: green when granted, orange when not.
- No settings were added or removed, and your existing settings are kept.
Updating from 1.0.4 or later keeps your permissions — just click Open Anyway once for the new version.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.
更新內容
- 設定頁改版。 設定視窗改成 macOS「系統設定」式的側邊欄：一般（App 資訊與更新）、外觀、行為、最近關閉、權限。
- 權限列一眼就能看出狀態：已授權為綠色、未授權為橘色。
- 沒有新增或移除任何設定，原本的設定都會保留。
從 1.0.4 以後的版本更新會保留權限，新版只需要再按一次「強制打開」。
需要 macOS 26 以上。安裝步驟見 README。

DockLens 1.0.11
What's new
- New: Recently closed. Close a document window (TextEdit, Preview and other file-based apps), then hover that app's Dock icon: the preview lists it under Recently closed. Click to reopen the file in the same app. It also works when the app has no windows left.
- Only documents with a file are remembered — not web pages, and not windows without a file (Terminal, Slack…).
- Kept in memory only: never written to disk, never sent anywhere, gone when DockLens quits. You can turn it off in Settings (it is cleared immediately).
- Zero extra cost when idle: still 0% CPU and no wakeups. Hover-to-preview time is unchanged.
- Translations for the new text in all 34 languages are AI-assisted — corrections are welcome as issues.
Updating from 1.0.4 or later keeps your permissions — just click Open Anyway once for the new version.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.
更新內容
- 新功能：最近關閉。 關掉文件視窗（TextEdit、預覽程式等有檔案的 App）後，游標停到該 App 的 Dock 圖示，預覽會在「最近關閉」列出它，點一下用同一個 App 重新打開檔案。App 已經沒有任何視窗時也能用。
- 只記有檔案的文件：不記網頁，也不記沒有檔案的視窗（Terminal、Slack 等）。
- 只存在記憶體：不寫入磁碟、不傳到任何地方，結束 DockLens 就消失。可以在設定關閉（會立刻清空）。
- 閒置時沒有額外負擔：仍是 0% CPU、0 次喚醒；游標停上去到預覽出現的時間沒有變慢。
- 新文字的 34 種語言翻譯是 AI 協助完成，歡迎到 GitHub issue 指正。
從 1.0.4 以後的版本更新會保留權限，新版只需要再按一次「強制打開」。
需要 macOS 26 以上。安裝步驟見 README。

DockLens 1.0.10
What's new
- Fix: switching to a window on another desktop (Space) could target a button inside the window instead of the window itself. It now always targets the window.
- Calendar agenda and the playback bar are a little wider, so longer translations are no longer cut off.
- Translations re-checked against Apple's own wording for Thai, Simplified Chinese, Indonesian, Malay, Greek, Romanian, Hebrew and Hindi. Translations are still AI-assisted — corrections are welcome as issues.
Updating from 1.0.4 or later keeps your permissions — just click Open Anyway once for the new version.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.
更新內容
- 修正：切換到其他桌面（Space）上的視窗時，可能對視窗裡的按鈕操作，而不是視窗本身。現在一定會對視窗操作。
- 行事曆行程與播放列略微加寬，翻譯較長的語言不再被截斷。
- 泰文、簡體中文、印尼文、馬來文、希臘文、羅馬尼亞文、希伯來文、印地文的用詞，依 Apple 官方說明頁重新核對。翻譯仍是 AI 協助完成，歡迎到 GitHub issue 指正。

DockLens 1.0.9
What's new
- Layout fixes for longer translations. Long permission names in the welcome window now wrap instead of being cut off, and the Calendar agenda has a slightly wider time column so "All Day" and "… left" read better in languages like Spanish and French.
Updating from 1.0.4 or later keeps your permissions — just click Open Anyway once for the new version.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.
更新內容
- **較長翻譯的排版修正。**歡迎視窗裡過長的權限名稱改為換行、不再被截斷；行事曆行程的時間欄略微加寬，「全天」「還剩…」在西班牙文、法文等語言更好讀。

DockLens 1.0.8
What's new
- Fixes the Traditional Chinese interface showing English in 1.0.7. If you're on 1.0.7 with a Traditional Chinese (繁體中文) macOS, DockLens appeared in English — sorry about that. It's fixed, and there's now an automated test that every language really has its strings.
- Better translations in all 33 other languages. Each language was re-reviewed against Apple's own wording for macOS: corrected typos and mistranslations, and the official names for Accessibility, Screen Recording, Automation, Check for Updates and more. Translations are still AI-assisted — if something reads wrong, please open an issue or send a pull request.
Updating from 1.0.4 or later keeps your permissions — just click Open Anyway once for the new version.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.
更新內容
- **修正 1.0.7 的繁體中文介面顯示成英文的問題。**用繁體中文 macOS 的使用者，1.0.7 的 DockLens 會是英文介面，造成困擾很抱歉。已修正，並新增自動測試確認每一種語言都真的有字串表。
- **其餘 33 種語言的翻譯全面審稿並修正。**逐一對照 Apple 在 macOS 上的官方用語：更正錯字與誤譯，並改用「輔助使用」「螢幕錄製」「自動化」「檢查更新」等各語言的正式名稱。翻譯仍是 AI 協助完成，哪裡不通順，歡迎到 GitHub issue 指正或發 pull request。

DockLens 1.0.7
What's new
- DockLens now speaks 34 languages, following your macOS language setting: English, 简体中文, 繁體中文, 日本語, 한국어, Deutsch, Français, Español, Italiano, Português (Brasil / Portugal), Català, Nederlands, Svenska, Dansk, Norsk Bokmål, Русский, Українська, Polski, Čeština, Slovenčina, Magyar, Română, Hrvatski, Ελληνικά, Türkçe, Suomi, العربية, עברית, हिन्दी, Tiếng Việt, ไทย, Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Melayu.

- The translations were made with AI assistance and haven't all been checked by native speakers — if something reads wrong, please open an issue or send a pull request.
Updating from 1.0.4 or later keeps your permissions — just click Open Anyway once for the new version.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.

- DockLens 支援 34 種語言，跟隨 macOS 的語言設定：English、简体中文、繁體中文、日本語、한국어、Deutsch、Français、Español、Italiano、Português、Русский、العربية、हिन्दी、Türkçe、Tiếng Việt、ไทย 等；不在清單內的語言顯示英文。行事曆行程的日期與時間長度也會跟著換語言。
- 翻譯由 AI 協助完成，不是每一種都經過母語者檢查；哪裡不通順，歡迎到 GitHub issue 指正或發 pull request。

DockLens 1.0.6
What's new
- Screen Recording is now optional. If you'd rather not grant it, DockLens still works: the preview lists each window by app icon and title instead of a thumbnail, and switching, closing, minimizing and the W / M / H / Q shortcuts all work as before. The onboarding lets you continue without it, and you can turn thumbnails on later in Settings. Without Screen Recording, DockLens never tries to capture the screen, so macOS won't keep asking.
Updating from 1.0.4 or 1.0.5 keeps your permissions — just click Open Anyway once for the new version.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.
更新內容
- **螢幕錄製改為選用。**不想給螢幕錄製權限也能用：預覽改以 App 圖示和視窗標題列出每個視窗（取代縮圖），切換、關閉、縮小，以及 W／M／H／Q 快捷鍵都照常可用。在引導畫面按「先不要縮圖，直接使用」即可，之後可在設定裡開啟縮圖。沒有螢幕錄製時 DockLens 完全不擷取畫面，系統不會一直跳出詢問。
從 1.0.4 或 1.0.5 更新會保留權限，新版只需要再按一次「強制打開」。
需要 macOS 26 以上。安裝步驟見 README。

DockLens 1.0.5
What's new
- Single-key shortcuts on the preview. With the pointer on the preview, press W to close or M to minimize / restore the window under the pointer, H to hide the app, Q to quit it. Keys are only taken while the pointer is on the preview — anywhere else, and for ⌘ combos like ⌘W, typing works as usual. Button tooltips show the key. Turn it off in Settings if you don't want it.
Updating from 1.0.4 keeps your Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions — just click Open Anyway once for the new version.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.
更新內容
- **預覽上的單鍵快捷鍵。**游標停在預覽上時，按 W 關閉、M 縮小／還原游標所在的視窗，H 隱藏 App、Q 結束 App。只有游標在預覽上時才會攔截按鍵；其他地方，以及 ⌘W 這類組合鍵，都照常輸入。按鈕提示會顯示對應的鍵；不想用可以在設定關閉。
從 1.0.4 更新會保留「輔助使用」「螢幕錄製」權限，新版只需要再按一次「強制打開」。
需要 macOS 26 以上。安裝步驟見 README。

DockLens 1.0.4
What's new
- Updates keep your permissions. Starting with this version, every release is signed with the same certificate, so macOS recognizes new versions as the same app. After you update, Accessibility and Screen Recording stay on — you only click Open Anyway once for the new version. (This one update still needs them re-enabled one last time, because 1.0.3 and earlier used a different signature.)
- Check for updates. Choose Check for Updates… in the menu bar menu, or turn on Check weekly in Settings (off by default). When a new version is out, the menu bar icon turns into a download arrow. The check is a single request to the GitHub API for the latest version number — nothing about you is sent, and DockLens still makes no other network connections.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.
更新內容
- **更新後權限會保留。**從這個版本起，每個版本都用同一張憑證簽章，系統會把新版認成同一個 App：更新後「輔助使用」「螢幕錄製」維持開啟，新版只需要再按一次「強制打開」。（這次更新還要最後一次重新開啟權限，因為 1.0.3 以前用的是不同的簽章。）
- **檢查更新。**在選單列選單按「檢查更新…」，或在設定打開「每週自動檢查更新」（預設關閉）。有新版本時，選單列圖示會變成下載箭頭。檢查只向 GitHub API 讀取最新版本號，不送出任何關於你的資料；除此之外 DockLens 仍然不連網。
需要 macOS 26 以上。安裝步驟見 README。

DockLens 1.0.3
What's new
- Today's agenda on the Calendar icon. Hover Calendar in the Dock — even when it isn't running — to see today's events with calendar colors, "in progress" / "starts in 9 min", and a Join button for Zoom / Meet / Teams links. Click an event to open it in Calendar. Once today is done, it shows tomorrow. Calendar access is asked only when you click Allow on the preview, and is read-only. You can turn this off in Settings.
- Smaller thumbnail cache. Thumbnails are now stored at the exact size they're shown, which uses noticeably less memory on Retina displays with many windows.
Updating from 1.0.2: replace DockLens.app in /Applications. Because DockLens isn't notarized yet, macOS treats each version as a new app — you'll need to click Open Anyway once more and re-enable Accessibility and Screen Recording.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install steps are in the README.
更新內容
- **行事曆圖示顯示今天的行程。**游標停在 Dock 的「行事曆」上（行事曆沒開也可以），就能看到今天的行程：日曆顏色、「進行中／9 分鐘後開始」，Zoom／Meet／Teams 會議有「加入」鈕，點行程直接在行事曆打開；今天的行程結束後改顯示明天。只在你按面板上的「允許」時才詢問行事曆權限，而且只讀取；可在設定關閉。
- **縮圖快取更省記憶體。**縮圖改成存成實際顯示的大小，Retina 螢幕、視窗多時記憶體明顯較少。
從 1.0.2 更新：用新的 DockLens.app 取代「應用程式」裡的舊版。DockLens 還沒經過 Apple 公證，系統會把每個版本當成新的 App，需要再按一次「強制打開」，並重新開啟 輔助使用 與 螢幕錄製。
需要 macOS 26 以上。安裝步驟見 README。
