HyperDock vs InfyniDock · checked October 19, 2026
HyperDock taught a generation of Mac users to hover the Dock for previews. InfyniDock keeps that idea and makes windows themselves the targets. The practical question is maintenance.
HyperDock popularized hover previews and window controls in the Mac Dock. Its public releases are old enough that compatibility with current macOS versions is the first thing to check. InfyniDock takes the same idea further: previews plus window-level targets, Notch Dock, FloatDock, Full Dock, workspaces and per-window hotkeys for a one-time $12. HyperDock may still be useful on an older Mac where it already works. For a new setup in 2026, an actively maintained app is the lower-risk choice.

HyperDock is history worth knowing, and on the right old Mac it still does the job it was built for. For a new setup, start with an app that is actively maintained: the previews are easy to replicate, but compatibility and window-level control are not.
Compatibility depends on your macOS version and the build you have. HyperDock's public releases are old, so test it before relying on it for daily work. On a current release, an actively maintained alternative is the safer choice.
Yes for the core workflow: Dock previews and window activation. InfyniDock adds window-level targets, Notch Dock, FloatDock, Full Dock, workspaces and per-window hotkeys.
