Now, knowing all the benefits for using dual screens, you might now ask how do you use the sidecar function on your iPad? Don’t worry, we got you!
Before jumping right into it, there are a couple of things you should know before using Sidecar. Firstly, make sure your iPad and MacBook meets the Sidecar requirements by using the same Apple ID. You can also use your Sidecar wirelessly, but to keep your iPad charged during use, connect it directly to your MacBook.
Choose your iPad in the list of iPad available for the Sidecar
From the system preferences > Sidecar, you can configure where you want the sidebar to appear on your iPad for easier navigation, show or hide the Touch Bar, or whether you want to use the Apple Pencil. And if you want to change the screen location whether it is below, beside, or above your Mac you can change it on System Preferences > Display, for easier mouse or trackpad handling.
