Hi r/macapps, I'm the developer. DockNest is a small menu-bar app that lets you group apps into folders and open them straight from the Dock, like on iPhone and iPad. It needs macOS Sonoma or later.

It's a one-time purchase of €14.99 (no subscription), the license works on 2 Macs, and it's notarized by Apple. There's no free trial yet, so if it doesn't work for you, you can get a refund within 14 days.

Happy to answer questions and take feature requests here.

Spotify is too loud, the call is too quiet, and macOS still doesn't have a per-app mixer. I wanted one that didn't install a virtual audio driver or ask for admin rights, so I built MixBar. I'm the developer.

It's a menu bar app. Open the panel and every app that's currently playing gets its own slider and mute button. At 100% MixBar removes its tap entirely, so the app goes back to its normal bit-perfect output with zero overhead.

**Install:** https://github.com/hikara192/MixBar/releases/latest — DMG, drag to Applications, no terminal.
