How to Change App and Folder Icons in macOS

As far as this guide is concerned, we will use the Desktop folder as an example but don’t worry as the process remains the same for any other folder, app, or even website bookmark.

Step #1. Very first thing you’ll need to do is select any image of your choice and copy it to the clipboard by double clicking thepicture to open it in Preview. Now click on Edit→Select All. Next, press Command + C to copy the image to clipboard.

Step #2. To locate the Desktop folder, ensure you are in Finder and press Shift + Command + H. Alternatively, you may also click on Go from top bar and then click on Home.

Step #3. Right click on the Desktop folder icon/name and select “Get Info“.

Step #4. On the info panel of the folder, click on the folder icon located at the upper-left corner.

Step #5. All you need to do now is to paste the image we copied in the first step by pressing Command + V.

You can repeat the same process for any folder. To restore the original image follow Step #3, Step #4 and now press Command + X to cut the image and it will automatically restore the original default image.

For changing app icon on Mac, you’ll need to access Application folder by looking for it in Finder and then select any App for which you wish to customize the icon. Thereafter, follow on from Step #3.

Note: For changing the icon of an in-built app (like Safari), you will need to enter your Mac’s password.

Wrapping up…
