Small app. Big difference.
Between your apps.
Not stuck next to Downloads: folders live on the apps side of the Dock.
One click, one fan.
Apps fan out above the icon, with names and a dot for running apps.
Four animations.
Glide, Cascade, Fan or Dissolve—or none. Reduce Motion is respected.
Private by design.
No account, no tracking. Your folders never leave your Mac.
29 categories
A folder for everything you do.
Each category brings its own icon and name to the Dock. Use as many as you like.
FAQ
Good questions.
Do I need to install anything else?
No. DockFolder is a single app. Everything it needs is built in.
Why categories instead of free names?
Mac App Store apps may not create new apps on your Mac. So DockFolder ships one ready-made Dock icon per category—that's what lets your folders sit between your apps.
Are my original apps moved?
No. Your apps stay exactly where they are. DockFolder only remembers which apps belong in which folder.
Which Macs are supported?
Macs with macOS 13 Ventura or later, with Apple silicon or Intel.
