For this you might want to include a home screen or two that contains a Calendar widget, your chosen to-do app, a calculator app, and anything else you use on a daily basis for your lessons. Or maybe you’re a student, and you’ve set up a School focus. If you’ve set up an At Home focus, meanwhile, you might want to stack all your streaming, messaging, and food delivery apps onto one page for ready access. Most of these are numbers & that's what we want. Click on the first line, 'About This Mac'.
HOME SCREENS FOR MAC HOW TO
Here is how to find out what version of Mac OS you are running: Click on the blue apple in the upper left hand of the screen. For your Work focus, for example, you might want to get rid of distracting social media apps and news widgets, and have only a VIP email widget, a clock widget, and the Slack app icons at your fingertips. Move the mouse pointer somewhere else on the screen & click. When you really start to think about it, this provision starts to make an awful lot of sense. Now whenever your phone is in a particular Focus mode, it will only show the specific home screen you just attributed to it. Select any you’d like to include when you enter that Focus mode. You’ll be presented with a list of your home screens (hence why it’s good to set them up beforehand). Now hit Home Screen and flick the Custom Pages toggle to the on position. To attribute specific home pages depending on your current Focus mode, go to Settings > Focus > Do Not Disturb (or another Focus profile, like Work). It’s worth mentioning that the same app/widget can appear in multiple home screens. Repeat to add as many custom home screens as you think you’ll need for your Focus profiles. Also drag any app icons you’d like to include directly onto this home screen. Hit + to add the widgets of your choice, thinking specifically about what you’d want to access in any given Focus scenario. Tap and hold a blank section of the home screen to bring up the home screen edit controls, then scroll right until you get to new blank home screen. First things first, create some bespoke home screens the traditional way. It makes sense to work backwards when setting up your custom pages.
