That being said, each way has its own advantage over others. In this article, we will tell you about the different ways in which you can take a screenshot in Apple's Mac. In addition to that, we will also tell you which way is quicker and which one is more customisable.

Use Grab, the inbuilt screenshot app
Why do we need an extra app to capture a screenshot when the keyboard shortcuts can serve the same purpose, you ask? Well, apart from providing the three options stated above, the Grab app allows you to set a timer for a screen capture. Just type Grab in the Spotlight search to access this app.

Use the Terminal to customise screenshots
You can't exactly capture a screenshot using the Terminal. However, it can help you customise things like the screenshot's name, its file type, or its save location. Use the below commands to customise each of its behaviour.
To change the screenshot's file type:
defaults write com.apple.screencapturetype [type]
killall SystemUI
Note: Replace [type] with JPG, BMP, PDF, TIF, or PNG depending upon the requirement.
To change the screenshot's file name:
defaults write com.apple.screencapturename [file name]
killall Sys
Note: Replace the [file name] with whatever the name you'd like to use.
