IntelliDock

IntelliDock automatically hides macOS’s Dock whenever a window overlaps it, keeping the screen uncluttered without manual intervention. Users can set a sensitivity value that determines how far a window must approach the Dock before it disappears, allowing fine‑tuned control over the behavior. The utility works on OS X 10.10 and later and is distributed as a free download, with a Homebrew formula available for easy installation.

The software accesses system APIs to show and hide the Dock, which is why it is not listed in the App Store. It does not collect any user data, and its privacy policy reflects that no information is gathered. IntelliDock is designed to complement window‑management tools such as Grid, a companion app that provides additional window‑arrangement features.

IntelliDock is aimed at macOS users who prefer a minimalist workspace and want the Dock to disappear automatically when it would otherwise be obstructed by active windows. Its configurable sensitivity and integration with Grid make it a practical addition for those who use third‑party window managers.
