Folder Designer Folder Designer

Make every folder
unmistakable.

Customize your Mac folders with icons, patterns, and background colors. Pick from built-in icons or use your own images — then apply with one click.

Requires macOS 11.15 or later

Icon & Pattern Modes

Two ways to
customize.

Icon mode overlays an image on your folder. Pattern mode wraps an entire photo around it — perfect for family pictures, textures, or anything that makes a folder instantly recognizable.

Built-in Icon Library

Dozens of icons,
ready to go.

Choose from a large selection of built-in icons covering documents, music, photos, code, and more. Or select any image from your Mac for something completely custom.

Precise Controls

Scale, position,
perfect.

Adjust scale and X/Y position with sliders, or let Fit and Center do it for you. Add a background tint color to replace the default blue with any shade you want.

Everything you need to customize.
