For example, if you’re working in the Mail app then the Touch Bar will display email-related shortcuts, and if you’re penning a response in Messages then the Touch Bar may display a row of your most frequently-used Emojis.Ĭurrently, the physical Touch Bar is limited to the 2016 MacBook Pro line, but if you’re curious to try this new feature for yourself, then there is a way to get a taste of the Touch Bar experience without having to spend £1,700+ on a new Macbook Pro. Rather than simply replacing the physical function keys, the MacBook Pro’s new ‘Touch Bar’ area displays application shortcuts that update automatically depending on whatever’s currently onscreen.
