Why the versions differ

UpDock Free and UpDock+ are distributed through the App Store and operate inside Apple’s sandbox model. UpDock Pro is planned as a direct-download version for users who need the broadest capabilities and fewer platform restrictions.

The differences are not just about “more” or “less” — they also reflect real platform constraints and workflow needs.

Choosing the right version

  • Choose UpDock Free if you want to try the app with a lighter feature set.
  • Choose UpDock+ if you want a stronger App Store version with most limits removed.
  • Watch for UpDock Pro if you want the full version and the fewest workflow restrictions.
