Now there is no alternative replacement for the Menu bar, but you can enhance it with third party add-on apps. The Menu bar is the top bar which holds various app status icons and the navigation menu. It is available for 14-day free trial and after that you can get it for $30 as a onetime purchase. We like that uBar shows visual information about each running app such as number of unread emails, app status and even a progress bar for multimedia apps. Other useful features include window previews, open window grouping, multimonitor support, and drag & drop. UBar can be placed on the bottom, left, right or top of your screen and can show up to 5 rows of icons. UBar - you can keep it as dock or as a task bar just like Windows OS. But if you want a dock that does more than just showing icons, then there are alternatives available. ET suggests some alternatives and additions to improve your experience.īy default, the macOS icon dock does the function as per its name - it’s a dock for shortcut app icons. While the operating system in itself works fluently, the default interface apps (Menu bar, Finder, icon dock etc.) feel a bit lacking.
MacOS comes preloaded with every Macbook, iMac or Mac Mini.
