Control Center on your Mac
Control Center groups key settings for your Mac into a single place, giving you instant access to the controls you use the most—like Bluetooth, AirDrop, Screen Mirroring, Focus, and brightness and volume controls—right from the menu bar. Click in the upper-right corner of the screen to open Control Center.
Click for more options. Click a button to see more options. For example, click the Wi-Fi button to see your preferred networks, other networks, or to open Wi-Fi Settings. To return to the main Control Center view, click again.
Manage your desktop. Use Stage Manager to automatically organize your apps and windows and quickly switch between them. You can also group apps together to create workspaces ideal for your workflow. See Manage windows on your Mac.
Monitor your mic. When an external mic is connected and in use, a recording indicator appears at the top of Control Center. This indicator increases security and privacy on your Mac by letting you know if an app has access to the microphone.
Pin your Control Center favorites. Drag a favorite item from Control Center to the menu bar to pin it there, so you can easily access it with a single click. To change what appears in the menu bar, open System Settings, click Control Center, then click the pop-up menu next to each item and choose “Show in Menu Bar.” You see a preview of where the control will appear in the menu bar. Some items can’t be added to or removed from Control Center or the menu bar.
Tip: To quickly remove an item from the menu bar, press and hold the Command key and drag the item out of the menu bar.
