New in 2.4

See what needs attention. Switch to every kind of app.

Mac Taskbar 2.4 brings Dock badge indicators, first-class Chrome and Chromium web-app windows, and clearer color-aware active tiles to both Liquid Glass and Classic.

Dock Badge Indicators

Mirror unread counts and status dots from the Dock directly on app tiles. Control them anytime from Appearance settings.

Chrome App Windows

Installed Chrome and Chromium web apps now appear as individual taskbar windows and activate reliably when selected.

Clearer Active Tiles

Custom colors are stronger and more consistent, while contrast-aware signature underlines keep the active window easy to spot.

New in 2.3

A fresh Liquid Glass look and more room for every window.

Mac Taskbar 2.3 introduces Liquid Glass as the new default and lets horizontal taskbars grow to multiple rows—independently on every display.

Liquid Glass

The new default uses native glass on macOS 26, compatible translucency on earlier supported versions, and adaptive contrast. Classic remains available.

Multiple Rows

Give top and bottom taskbars one to four rows, using one global default or an independent setting for each display.
