How to Remove the American Flag from Your MacBook
The American flag is a powerful symbol of patriotism and national pride. However, there may be times when you want to remove the flag from your MacBook, such as when you’re traveling abroad or working in a professional setting.
There are a few different ways to remove the American flag from your MacBook. The easiest way is to use the built-in trackpad gestures. Here’s how:
- Open the Apple menu and select "System Preferences."
- Click on "Keyboard."
- Click on the "Trackpad" tab.

Now, you can remove the American flag from your MacBook by swiping left with three fingers on the trackpad.
If you don’t want to use the trackpad gestures, you can also remove the American flag using the Terminal application. Here’s how:
- Open the Terminal application.
- Type the following command:
defaults write com.apple.systemuiserver menuExtras -array-add /System/Library/CoreServices/Menu Extras/Volume.menu- Press Enter.
