Dock Tile 2.0.0

Dock Tile 2.0.0

A redesigned app and a rebuilt icon engine — the biggest update since 1.0.

Added

• A new main window: your tiles, all settings, and About now live in one window with a sidebar — no more separate Settings and About windows.
• Popover settings: configure how every tile's popover looks — size, tile size, spacing, labels, hover highlight, and animation — with a live preview. Grid and List layouts are configured independently, and changes can be applied to tiles already in your Dock.
• Edit tiles in the real popover: "In This Tile" now shows the exact popover your Dock tile opens — hover to remove an app, drag to reorder, click Add to pick apps and folders.
• Send Feedback in About opens a message straight to the developer.

Changed

• Tiles now sit on Apple's official icon grid, with the same margins as every other Dock icon — they look slightly smaller than before, and that's intentional: they finally match their neighbours.
• On macOS Tahoe, macOS itself renders your tiles in every icon style — Default, Dark, Clear, and Tinted follow your system setting instantly and reliably.
• The app's own previews follow Light/Dark mode and icon-style changes live, just like the rest of macOS.
• Turning off "Suggest tiles from my apps" makes the + button create a blank tile directly — no dialog.

Fixed

• Tiles no longer get stuck in the wrong appearance when switching between Light and Dark or changing icon styles.
• Tiles no longer randomly change size in the Dock.
• On macOS 15, icon-style changes apply faster with no background polling.
• Emoji icons stay fully inside the tile at every size.
• "Start tiles at login" now explains itself in Settings if macOS refuses the registration, instead of silently switching back off.
• "Show in App Switcher" is disabled with an explanation while its tile is hidden — it only applies to tiles in the Dock.
