About:
Folder Colorizer is a macOS utility that allows users to customize the appearance of their Finder folders with custom colors and icons. It integrates directly into the macOS Finder context menu, enabling quick color changes without complex workflows. The tool enhances visual organization by allowing users to code folders by color for better project management and file sorting.
Key Features:
  • Context menu integration for right-click coloring
  • Support for custom colors and image icons
  • Batch processing capabilities for multiple folders
  • Restoration of original icons and colors
  • Lightweight system performance footprint
Use Cases:
  • Organizing project folders by color for quick visual identification
  • Customizing personal folders for aesthetic desktop customization
  • Creating visual hierarchies for file management workflows
Alternatives:
  • Folder Actions – Native macOS automation, but lacks visual customization features
  • Icons – Manual icon replacement tool, requires more effort for batch operations
