Add the HeyDock browser extension

The extension tells HeyDock which site is in front, so websites work like apps: they can fit your mode, or blur and ask during Focus. It works in Chrome, Brave, Arc and Edge. Safari isn’t supported yet.

Install it

HeyDock’s welcome has a browser step, and Settings › Permissions › Browser extension › Set Up… starts it any time.

1. HeyDock copies chrome://extensions and opens your browser. Paste it into the address bar (browsers don’t let other apps open that page).
2. Turn on Developer mode.
3. Click Load unpacked and choose the extension folder HeyDock shows you.
4. The step turns green once the extension connects.

What it does

• Reports the active tab’s address and title to HeyDock on your Mac, through a small helper inside HeyDock.app.
• During Focus, an off-mode tab blurs at once; the gate asks after you’ve stayed on it for 1.5 seconds, once per tab. Click the blur to ask again.
• Stay goes back a page and never closes the tab.

Privacy

Only the tab in front of the focused window is reported, and only to HeyDock on your Mac.
