CustomFolderIcons can change the app icon and background of any folder on the home screen.

Have you ever wanted to change the icon of one or more folders on your iPhone home screen before? If yes, then you are not alone.

While folder icons are meant to give users a glimpse of what’s inside them, at first glance they all might look the same. But the new and free jailbreak tweak CustomFolderIcons from iOS developer Lizynz can help solve this problem.

As shown in the sample screenshots above, CustomFolderIcons can be used to change both the app icon and the actual background of any home screen folder to whatever you want.

In this case, the user has selected an image from their photo library to use as the icon and background for a particular folder. Of course, you can do this for each of your folders so that they are easier to distinguish at a glance.

CustomFolderIcons is available as a free download from Lizynz’s personal repository through your favorite package manager app and supports jailbroken iOS 13, 14, 15 and 16 devices.

If you are not already using Lizynz’s personal repository, you can add it to your package manager application of your choice using the URL below:
