Obsidian Has a New Icon — Here Are Some Tips to Upgrade The App’s Appearance
Obsidian updated its icon yesterday. Although there was no overall change in how the app functions, I thought it would be a pleasant change to jump on the trend and share some of the top ways to improve how the app looks.
Of course, changing Obsidian’s appearance doesn’t contribute much to the functionality of the app. I’ll always advocate function over appearance, but it can improve your productivity if you have a visually pleasant an organised space to work in.
This article is going to share a mixture of plugins, tips and features for you to implement to change the appearance of the app. Pick the ones you like the look of and try them out!
Let’s get started.
There are several ways that I’ve come across to change how Obsidian appears for you. They are:
- Core settings
- Themes
- Plugins
- Snippets
They all bring different aspects of customisation to the app. You don’t have to try them all out — I don’t use snippets at the moment — but I’m going to cover them all here for the sake of completeness.
