uBar vs InfyniDock · checked October 19, 2026
uBar brings the Windows taskbar to macOS. InfyniDock keeps the Dock shape but makes windows the unit. Both show window previews, so the real difference is the metaphor and the macOS version you run.
uBar 5 turns macOS into a Windows-style taskbar: app tiles, live window previews, a bar on every display and an optional dock mode, for a one-time $39. InfyniDock is a window-first Dock: each window can become a direct target, with Notch Dock, FloatDock, Full Dock, workspaces and per-window hotkeys, for a one-time $12. uBar is the better fit if you miss the Windows taskbar and already run macOS 26. InfyniDock is the better fit if you want exact-window access on macOS 13 or later, at a lower price.

Where uBar wins
Where InfyniDock wins
If you switched from Windows and want the taskbar back, uBar is the most complete version of that idea and worth the $39. If you want the Dock to expose individual windows, workspaces and exact-window shortcuts, InfyniDock is the better fit, costs less, and supports older macOS releases.
No. uBar 5 lists macOS 26 Tahoe or later as its requirement. InfyniDock supports macOS 13 and later, which matters if you are not on the newest release.
Yes. Hovering an app tile shows live previews of its windows, and turning window grouping off exposes every window directly in the bar.
Technically yes, but both replace or overlay the Dock, so running them together usually creates duplicate bars and conflicting screen edges. Pick one primary Dock.
Both handle multiple displays. uBar is explicit about per-display bars with a mirror mode, while InfyniDock focuses on multi-display Dock visibility and moving or activating windows on a chosen screen.
