  • Work in multiple spaces on Mac
  • If the desktop on your Mac gets cluttered with open app windows, you can use Mission Control to create additional desktops, called spaces, to organize the windows. When you work in a space, you see only the windows that are in that space.
  • If your Mac has a Touch Bar, you can set an option in Keyboard preferences to show spaces in the Touch Bar. Then just tap a space to open it.
  • If you assign an app (or System Preferences) to a specific space, the app will always open in that space.

  • Use apps in Split View on Mac
  • Many apps on your Mac support Split View mode, where you can work in two apps side by side at the same time.
  • To use apps in Split View on other displays, make sure the "Displays have separate Spaces" tick box is selected in Mission Control preferences.

  • Leo Laporte gives you helpful tips to get the most from your Mac every week on Hands-On Mac!
