If you want to take over its space on the right side of the Touch Bar for other buttons, deselect the checkbox. The Press Fn Key To menu basically gives you a second choice-press that key, and you can display whatever set of buttons you’d find next most useful.įinally, notice that there’s a checkbox for Show Control Strip. That’s probably either App Controls or F-keys for most people, unless you do a lot of your own automation (choose Quick Actions) or regularly use full-screen apps (choose Spaces). In the Touch Bar Shows pop-up menu, you should choose the set of Touch Bar buttons that you’ll find the most useful most of the time.
This option is the most generally useful, though how much so depends on whether the apps you use support the Touch Bar in helpful ways.

As a result, developers haven’t been as enthusiastic about supporting the Touch Bar as they might have been.

Finally, it includes the Touch ID sensor that brings fingerprint authentication to the Mac.
By default, it changes depending on which app you’re in, and it also displays the Control Strip, a collection of controls that roughly mimics the functions accessible from the F-keys that traditionally live in that position. It’s a long, thin display above the number keys on the keyboard that shows a variety of buttons and controls. In 2016, Apple introduced the Touch Bar with the MacBook Pro.
