One can move to the Mac App Store and install the apps you want to in the iPhone/iPad version. You can also select your profile on the lower-left corner Mac App Store and switch to the iPhone and iPad Apps to access the installed apps.
- Touch Alternatives:
As MacBook does not allow touch results optimally, Apple has provided the Touch Alternatives option. It combines trackpad gestures and keyboard buttons to help you interact with those kinds of applications.
- Adjust Keyboard Backlight:
One can adjust the keyboard backlight in your M1 MacBook Air using the Control Center. First, select the Control Center option on the top right corner of the menu. Next, choose the ‘keyboard brightness’ option and move the slider left or right to control the screen’s brightness.
- Add icons to the Menu Bar:
All icons previously present on the Menu Bar are grouped and classified in the Control Center. Though it looks neat, it makes it a little disappointing to access frequently used options by moving to the Control Center every time. However, one can drag and drop the icons from there to the Menu Bar, like brightness, display, and more. Buy the M1 MacBook using the Apple MacBook Air EMI option.
- DND, Spotlight, and Dictation:
One can activate the Dictation option by pressing the F5 key and the Do Not Disturb option by clicking on the F6 key. Along with this, pressing the F4 key opens the Spotlight Search option.

Apple does not show the battery percentage on the Menu Bar by default. However, one can choose the Battery Indicator option and bring the Battery Status menu to show the battery status. Then, select ‘System Preferences’ and click the ‘Dock & Menu Bar’ option to get it to the Menu Bar. From the list, select the ‘Show Percentage’ option.
- Accent Colour:
