The Mac Dock has no app folders, and since macOS Tahoe there's no Launchpad either. TinyFolder puts a folder of apps right in your Dock: one click opens it above the tile. Its icon is built from the apps inside, and you design the rest – glass, color or texture, layouts, icon size, labels, living effects like snow and lava – in a live preview. Free on the Mac App Store.

Hi Product Hunt! I'm Sergey, the maker of TinyFolder. My Dock kept growing: apps I open once a week sat next to the ones I use all day. On iPhone you'd make a folder – the Mac Dock can't. The closest thing is a stack of aliases next to the Trash, and with macOS Tahoe even Launchpad is gone. So I built TinyFolder. Pick your apps, pin the folder, and one click opens it right above the tile. The icon is made from the apps inside, so you see what's in there at a glance. A fun constraint: the App Store sandbox only lets an app change its own Dock icon, so the App Store version gives you one folder. The version from tinyfolder.app pins as many as you like. Free to start, no account, works offline. I'd love your feedback: what should a Dock folder do that it doesn't yet?

@uxfilkov Liked that you explained the App Store sandbox limit and why the site version pins more folders. That makes the choice easy to understand. Also happy it works offline with no account.

@liam_peoples2 Thanks, Liam! Honestly, the sandbox made that call for me 😄 Glad the no-account, offline part matters to you too.
