Changelog
v1.0.5
May 9, 2026
- 📝 Description: New Layout History, update layouts from your current Dock, add multiple apps at once, more stable Dock editing, and big improvements to Focus Mode detection.
- ✨ New: Layout History – Modoki now keeps recent Dock layout snapshots, so you can quickly restore a previous layout if needed. Even if it wasn't saved!
- ✨ New: Update current layout from Dock – you can now refresh an existing layout using your current Dock setup instead of recreating it manually.
- ✨ New: Add multiple apps at once – adding apps to layouts is now faster and more convenient.
- 📈 Improvements: Improved Focus Mode detection and auto-revert reliability.
- 📈 Improvements: Improved Dock scrolling behavior for larger layouts, making it easier to work with many apps.
- 📈 Improvements: More reliable app adding – some apps previously could have issues with being added to layouts.
- 🛠️ Fix: Fixed multiple bugs around applying, updating, and restoring layouts.
- 🛠️ Fix: General cleanup and internal improvements for a smoother, more reliable experience.
- Due to Apple limitations in Focus Mode detection, layout may still not revert properly if iCloud is not enabled or Focus Mode is not shared between devices, for which I use a workaround. I constantly review this process to find out better ways, it's still not perfect though.
- If you have the "Show dock icon" setting turned off and open the app through Spotlight, the dock icon might not disappear after closing the app window.
- Switching between layouts too fast can occur in error. Try again after a short delay.
