The Chromium shopping helper is included; your browser must approve it manually. Shopping depends on the source website’s cookie settings and availability.

New in 2.2.2: Support on PayPal is available from Settings and the tray menu.

Background speed, contrast, chrome trim, metallic finish and independent dimensions remain included. Optional Windows startup and verified in-app updates stay included.
DockLite Ultimate
Your dock joined a band.
It still remembers where your shortcuts live. Everything in DockLite, plus a DockWave drawer that opens from the dock. Tuck it away and keep music, video, images or GIFs going in the mini-screen.

The dock and companion use separate processes and private memory. They still share your computer’s CPU, GPU and internet connection. New in 2.2.2: Support on PayPal is available from the dock menus, and the bundled DockWave 0.4.4 has the same support button. The drawer anchors to your dock on first launch, avoids re-decoding identical mini-preview frames, and retains its media loading improvements. Media features remain preview quality; software decoding is the safe default.
DockWave
Plays your media. Refuses to judge your playlist.
A comfortable home for videos, music, photos and animated GIFs. Scan folders into your library, sort by size or duration, step through files and enjoy a timed 3D carousel. No dock required.
