Folder Icon Maker is a small Mac app for anyone whose Finder windows are full of identical blue folders. It places your chosen colour, symbol or picture onto the normal macOS folder shape, so a work project, a photo archive and a tax folder can each look different at a glance. Version 2.0 suits home users, students and freelancers who want a tidier desktop without renaming anything or changing how their files are stored.

FAQs

Does it change the files inside my folders?

No. It only changes the picture a folder shows in Finder. Your files, names and folder structure stay exactly as they were.

Can I undo a folder design?

Yes. Custom folder pictures on macOS can be removed again through the Get Info window, which restores the plain default folder look.

Can I use my own photo as a folder picture?

Yes. The app composites your image onto the folder shape, so personal pictures and logos both work as folder designs.
