After you activate this feature, the top bar will automatically hide, similar to, for example, Dock. The top bar will automatically remain hidden until you move the cursor upwards. Some users may find this feature useful if they are annoyed by the constant display of the time in the upper right corner. Of course, time is relatively important in my case, but I work better when I don't know exactly what time it is, and besides, I don't have to rush anywhere and back.chat.
I don't mind the bar, on the contrary, but what I'm missing is the battery percentage indicator, can you help me?
I also miss this on the iPhone 12ProOn older iPhoneI used to always look at the percentage on the flashlight and immediately knew how I was doing. Now I have to pull up the control menu 🙁
In System Preferences, click on "Dock and menu bar", scroll down in the menu on the left, where there is "Battery" and there is the option "Show percentage".
Thanks! I was looking for it at the battery 😁
It should also work if you right-click or trackpadwhen you CTRL + click on the flashlight, a menu appears and there is Show percentage somewhere. Or at least that's how it works on Mojave :-)
