No more boring, monotonous folders – now you can personalize them to match your style or workflow. πŸš€ Today, we're excited to announce our latest version of Folder Colorizer v1.5 – with more features, improved performance, and an updated design. πŸ“ Folder Colorizer includes several pro-grade features, including: πŸͺ„ An AI-based β€˜Perform magic’ algorithm that recognizes the folder’s name and suggests a great mix of images, emojis, and decals to customize the folder. πŸ“ The ability to change the colors of multiple folders in one click. πŸ‘£ Tracking every step of the customization process. πŸ”™ The option to easily revert to the original color. πŸ†• What's new: πŸ“Έ Folder Colorizer now searches Pixabay, Unsplash, and Pexels for millions of stunning images that can be set as folder backgrounds. πŸ”– The entire gallery of special symbols instantly indicates the folder's content, even without words. ο£Ώ It's also the first Softorino product available in the Mac App Store, where it can be purchased as a stand-alone app for $4.99.

πŸ‘ I absolutely love the idea of an AI-based algorithm that suggests customization options based on the folder's name! That's such a cool feature. Hope it would be helpful for you guys as well.

@joshsoftorino yeah I like it it’s funny haha ! But I’m getting a question Is a folder locked after 24h if subscription is not already active ? Or juste emoji disappear ?

@devezehugo After the trial is over, your folders will stay customized. Nothing will disappear until your remove the app. You just won't be able to customize new folders after the trial is over. The app will let you know.

I love Folder Colorizer, but the version numbers don’t match up. @joshsoftorino you say v1.5 is out now, but the Mac App Store version shows v4.7.1 and the direct download from your website is v4.4.4 (no update to 4.7.1 available on the direct download version yet), so where does the 1.5 come from? I’m confused. Also, I’m hoping that in a future upgrade, you will allow using our own PNG files to embellish our colourful folders.
Toma Zakharova
Maker
@craigcpaterson Thanks for loving Folder Colorizer! The 1.5 in the name is mainly for marketing purposes, to showcase the difference between the original Folder Colorizer and the updated one. Rest assured that all app versions across all platforms have the same updated features, regardless of the version numbers (v4.4.4 or v4.7.1). Also, we appreciate your feedback about using your own PNG files, and we'll definitely take that into consideration for future updates. Thanks for your support!

Yes, Folder Colorizer 1.5 is the program with which I cleaned up my desktop. Finally, I can immediately see which folder is responsible for what and don't have to peer at the name of the folder at 2 am after 10 hours of work on the computer like that guy from a "small piece of paper" meme (huh 😌). 10/10

The integration with Pixabay, Unsplash, and Pexels is fantastic and provides users with an extensive library of stunning images to choose from when customizing their folder backgrounds. The gallery of special symbols is also a nice addition that can help users quickly identify the folder’s content without the need for words.

This is a really useful program to enable you to distinguish your folders, literally, at a glance. If you are feeling more artistic then you can set customisable folder backgrounds too. The only limit is your creativity.

:D made me smile. Great idea for organising folders and, to some degree, projects (at least that's what i had in mind). There are a couple of questions that i had in mind for this product. 1. What happens if you receive a zip from someone, with folders personalised with your tool. Do they get to see the the styles? 2 (you can view this as a future idea) Can you do presets? Something like a recomandation/suggestion for different folder organising ideas that users can adopt. Just to have a starting point. Great idea, nicely done.
