Or you can kick off an Automator workflow.
(Apple actually recently removed this standard-issue feature from macOS Sierra, but BetterTouchTool lets you get it back!) There are so many possible permutations - and if all the options aren’t enough, you can associate buttons with your own scripts written in AppleScript. If you’re not up for tinkering, you can just add canned “widgets,” including one that shows your MacBook’s estimated battery life. And each button can perform multiple functions at once if you like. You can use those custom buttons in all apps, or you can set up special buttons for use only in certain apps. The app lets you create and manage custom buttons for your Touch Bar. (BetterTouchTool also lets you make custom functions for Apple’s Magic Mouse, Magic Trackpad, and Siri Remote, and even for a Mac’s keyboard or trackpad, but I’m not going to address those capabilities here.) Swipe left to split screen and tile left, same with right. It’s called BetterTouchTool, from independent developer Andreas Hegenberg of Germany. Four-finger tap to quickly go back to previous app (map to command+tab) Force-click three finger and swipe up to go into fullscreen. And, as far as I can tell, there is just one app for the Touch Bar that really makes a difference in day-to-day work. But if you’re going to spend the extra money on a laptop that has one of these doohickeys, you might as well get the most you can out of it.
