AquaDock

Chrome extension

A Mac-style desktop in every new tab

AquaDock turns Chrome’s New Tab page into a desktop with a menu bar, a magnifying Dock, Launchpad, Spotlight search, widgets and mini apps. It’s free, and your setup stays on your computer.

See how it works

A quick tour: the Dock, Launchpad, Spotlight, Notes, reminders, tasks, Focus and Workspaces.

Everything you open, one click away

Open a new tab and your apps, notes and tools are already there, laid out the way you like.

  • A Dock that magnifies

    Pin your favourite sites. If one is already open, AquaDock switches to that tab instead of opening a duplicate. Drag to rearrange; removed apps wait in Trash for seven days.

  • Launchpad

    Popular web apps in one grid. One click pins any of them to your Dock, or add your own website with a custom icon.

  • Spotlight search

    Press Ctrl+K (⌘K on Mac) or just start typing to find apps, open tabs and addresses, do quick sums, or search the web with your default search engine.

  • Calendar, Today and Weather

    Add reminders to any date, keep today’s tasks in view, and see a five-day forecast for the city you choose.

  • Focus & Sound

    A focus and break timer that plays rain, white noise or your own music while you work.

  • Notes, To-Do and Calculator

    Small apps that open in movable windows right on your desktop.

  • Desktops and wallpapers

    Separate Docks and wallpapers for work, study and downtime. Pick a built-in wallpaper or use your own photos.

  • Workspaces

    Save a window’s tabs as a project and reopen them all in one click. Earlier versions are kept, and optional recovery snapshots protect your open tabs.

  • A Dock on any website

    Turn on Floating Dock and it slides out from the left edge of any page. Hide it on sites where you don’t want it.

Free. All of it.

Every feature is included for everyone. There’s no Pro plan, no account to create, no ads and no upgrade prompts.

Private by design

Your Dock, notes, tasks, reminders, workspaces and settings are saved in Chrome on your computer. AquaDock has no servers, accounts, analytics or ads, and never sends your data to us. The Weather card only sends a city’s coordinates to MET Norway and never uses your location. Floating Dock appears on websites only if you turn it on. Read the privacy policy.

Make every new tab feel like home
