![]() Much faster and to our mind far more convenient is the quick access to each individual part of System Preferences. You can, though, tap a letter when you’re scrolling and it will leap to the apps beginning with that. This makes uBar’s list of them take an age to scroll down. Your mileage will vary there, with any luck, because as well as a lot of Dock items we do rather hoard apps. Plus it’s a fairly quick route to your applications. It’s got quick access to your documents, music and more. The uBar icon displays a popup menu with options for system sleep or shut down. When you press that key, you are also transported to Windows-land but with a bit of class and style. Then at the top there is uBar when it’s only showing app icons. In the middle is uBar showing names alongside every app. By comparison, uBar gives us at least all the same functionality but does so in just under half the space.Ĭompare and contrast. Our 48 items stretch across the full width of our 27-inch iMac screen. Or rather it is when you replace your regular Dock with uBar 4. That brings us down to 48 items in the Dock and that’s far more sensible. That document can go and it might as well be followed by iBooks as we always read those on our iPad. Truly, looking at it for you now, we can see instantly where we should cut back. The FileMaker Pro app is of course in our Dock. For instance, it’s a mystery why we have that FileMaker Pro document when every single day we forget it’s there and instead open the FileMaker app. Often, down the road, we’ve forgotten the reason. However, everything else is an app we have chosen to add there. It also includes one document, a FileMaker Pro database that we use daily. That does include the Trash, the Finder, Siri and the App Store. Currently our regular macOS Dock holds 50 items. Yet tidying up is foolish talk and especially so when instead you can use uBar 4.0.7 to remove or at least postpone having to do anything. Of course there is always the option to remove applications from it and, true, there are apps in our Dock that we haven’t opened in months. We were only saying the other day that our Docks are getting a bit full.
