About:
LiteIcon is a lightweight utility designed for macOS that allows users to easily customize system and application icons without using Terminal commands. It provides a simple drag-and-drop interface to replace icons for folders, apps, and volumes. This tool simplifies the personalization of the user interface, offering a safer and more intuitive alternative to manual icon editing.
Key Features:
  • Drag-and-drop interface for easy icon replacement
  • Supports system, application, and folder icons
  • Ability to restore default icons from backups
  • Optimized for modern macOS versions
Use Cases:
  • Personalizing the visual appearance of the macOS Finder and Dock
  • Branding standard folders for specific projects or workflows
  • Restoring default icons after system updates or customization
Alternatives:
  • Image2icon – Offers more design features but is a paid app with a free trial.
  • Terminal (sips command) – Built-in but requires command-line knowledge and lacks a GUI.
