No. FolderCascade only modifies Finder label metadata to apply colors to your folders. Your files, folder contents, and folder structure remain completely untouched. It's a safe way to organize and color-code your Mac folders without any risk to your data.

Yes. In its current version, FolderCascade applies the selected color label from your root folder to all subfolders, replacing any existing labels. We recommend using it on folders where you want a consistent color scheme throughout the entire hierarchy.

FolderCascade requires only minimal permissions to read and write Finder metadata (folder labels). It never accesses or reads the contents of your files. Your documents, photos, and other data remain private and secure.

Yes, FolderCascade works seamlessly with external drives, USB drives, and network drives on macOS. You can apply color labels to folder hierarchies on any mounted volume without modifying the drive's structure.

No, FolderCascade works completely offline. Once installed from the Mac App Store, all features work without an internet connection. Your folder organization stays on your Mac.

FolderCascade is a standalone macOS application available on the Mac App Store. While it's not a Finder extension, it integrates smoothly with your workflow to help you organize and color-code folder trees with a single click.

Unlike Finder's built-in labeling which only colors one folder at a time, FolderCascade cascades the labels and color of your selected folder to its entire subfolders tree instantly. What would take hours of manual clicking is done in one click.

FolderCascade is currently available exclusively for macOS on the Mac App Store. It's designed specifically for Mac users who want to organize their Finder folders with color labels.
