Desktop Organizer
What it is
Desktop Organizer arranges Mac desktop files, folders, and icons into designated areas called File Zones. It creates a DesktopOrganizer folder in a storage location you choose, with each desktop section corresponding to a folder within it. The maker says the sections display folder contents but do not have permission to delete the original files. App Zones serve another purpose: they launch apps selected through a right-click menu, and they do not support dragging files into them. You can choose among multiple zone themes, add decorative desktop widgets, and adjust zone size and position. Listed organization features include multi-tab zones, automatic expanding and collapsing, drag-and-drop sorting, and list view. The version history also describes zone display logic optimized for multi-monitor setups. The app is for Mac and requires macOS 12.0 or later. The maker’s privacy policy says it does not request, store, or collect personal information, device information, or other user data. A free download is available with in-app purchases. Listed options are $1.99 a month, $19.99 a year, and $24.99, paid once.
