Even though macOS is not known for full-on customization like its arch-rival Windows, it is not that difficult when it comes to fine-tuning the basic things. Knowing how aggressively Apple has sort of broken the age-old shackle by offering a ton of customization options in iOS 14, we believe a similar gateway for macOS is just around the corner.
Coming back to folder customization on Mac, we find it very easy and fun to do once you know how. Apart from making the items stand out from the crowd, it also keeps the monotony of looking at blue folder icons at bay. If there is anything that we would like to add to it, to make fine-tuning folder icons even more exciting, it is the introduction of an icon pack along with the ability to create your own app and folder icon. It would take the personalization game to the next level.
Furthermore, the inclusion of a theme pack that could cycle through the already selected images automatically would be a welcome addition. No matter how cool any wallpaper looks, it tends to get boring after a while. And that’s where an eye-catching theme pack has a meaty role to play.
So, what do you have to say about the folder icon customization on Mac, and more importantly, what are the changes you would like to see in it? Feel free to share your thoughts with us. And if you have any issues in your Mac, contact Rapid Repair for quick MacBook repair service.
