Change icon or name of folders

Feature Request

I only use folders on my home screen, so every icon is just a folder. I like having everything 2 clicks away, but I have a hard time finding stuff. I have to rely on reading the names of all my folders, which isn't as fast or smooth as being able to immediately see which apps are in them.

I have a couple solutions. One is to allow the name of the folder to be the icons for each app in the folder, organized side-by-side.

The other is to be able to select custom icons in place of the generic folder icon. I know there are already icons you can choose from, but I'd like to upload my own files.

    You can already use any icon for your folder, including icons from icon packs in the play store. There are hundreds of icon packs with tens of thousands of icons. There are also apps that allow you to create your own icon packs, allowing you to use your own custom images if this is what you really want.

    But I find it's better to use an icon for my folder from the anyicons pack to it matches all the others. See the screenshots below.

    Schedule, Money, Home, Media and Social are all folders.

    The benefit of using an anyicon is that when I change themes it matches the new theme.
