Windows users will be familiar with a feature that allows previewing window contents by hovering over their taskbar icons. If you want this in macOS as well, the only way you’re going to get it is via a third-party app.

Dock previews are DockDoor’s main functionality, with the added bonus of an alternative alt-tab feature that includes window previews. It’s an open-source app, very easy to set up and use, though still not quite perfect.

Folx combines two functionalities: download manager and torrent client.

Folx makes downloading extremely easy: just open the page with the file to be downloaded, click the link in your browser and Folx will start the download for you. The application splits the file being downloaded in up to ten threads, thus significantly increasing the download speed. Its auto resume option comes handy when the downloading gets interrupted. You can also assign a tag or a few to the downloaded content for accurate and easy search through the downloaded files. You can optimize traffic allocation between different applications by regulating manually the download and upload speed.
