Can’t macOS

Design Studio. For your tiny folders.
Every folder is built in a live editor.
Pick a style, tweak the glass, drop in icons, and watch it update in real time. When it looks right, pin it.
Tune every last detail.
Background, shape, icons, type, effects – adjust anything and watch the folder update live.
Separate effect parameters.
Blur, depth, glow, tint – tune each effect on its own until the glass looks exactly right.
I built TinyFolder because my Dock was always split between two bad options: too many icons, or apps hidden somewhere else.

A little app launcher that lives in your Dock. Gather the apps you actually use into one folder, design exactly how it looks – glass, color, icons – and pin it. One click opens it and launches whatever's inside.
Yes. macOS puts every running app in the Dock, and no app can switch that off. What TinyFolder reclaims is the space taken by apps you are NOT running: they sit in one folder instead of a row of icons.
No. TinyFolder launches apps; it does not handle documents. If you need to drop a file onto an app, a plain macOS folder of aliases in the Dock does exactly that.
TinyFolder runs on macOS 13 and later, on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
TinyFolder is code-signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple. It runs locally on your Mac, and no personal data leaves your device.
TinyFolder Pro covers 2 Macs – a desktop and a laptop, say. Activate each with your email and the key, no account needed.
