What is Always On Dock?

Dock to Desktop any app just like OneNote docked it's note.

Always On Dock reserves an area on the right side of your screen where you can snap (dock) apps. Windows uses rest of the area as desktop. No more windows hiding your notes, chat or video calls.

Usage:

For Office Work - • Keep notes or a to-do list permanently visible while you work

For Home Use - • Watch videos from dock uninterrupted while you explore

For Developers - • Teams chat always visible while coding. • ChatGPT or Claude always visible while programming. • YouTube tutorial pinned while following steps.

For Accountants - • Outlook always visible while working in Excel. • Trading View visible while placing orders. • Calculator and Notepad always visible on the side.

How it works:

• Drag any window onto the dock — it snaps in instantly • Dock up to 3 programs — they stack vertically and share the space evenly • Drag a docked window out to undock it; • Drag within the dock to reorder • Resize the dock by dragging its left edge — everything reflows live • Hide the dock from the tray icon when you need the full screen back • Exit restores every window exactly where it was

Always On Dock never restarts your programs — it only repositions their windows. Your browser keeps every tab and login.

Nothing is collected, nothing phones home: Always On Dock has no network access and works entirely on your PC.
