Widgets are small applications that can provide quick access to information and perform common tasks without opening a full-sized app. They are a handy way to keep important info at your fingertips, such as weather updates, calendar events, or system status. Here’s how you can add widgets to your Mac:

1.Click the Notification Center icon in the top right corner of your screen – it looks like three stacked horizontal lines.

2.At the bottom of the Notification Center pane, click ‘Edit Widgets.’

3.You will see a list of widgets that you can add. Browse through these or use the search bar to find something specific.

4.To add a widget, simply click the plus (+) button next to it.

5.After you’ve made your selection, drag and drop the widget to where you want it on the screen.

6.If there are different size options for a widget (small, medium, large), choose the one you prefer.

7.When you’re finished adding widgets, click ‘Done’ in the lower-right corner.

Removing Widgets From Your Mac

If you decide you no longer need certain widgets, removing them is just as easy as adding them:

2.Scroll down and click ‘Edit Widgets.’

3.Find the widget you want to remove in the Notification Center.

4.Click the minus (-) button in the upper left corner of the widget.

5.The widget will be removed immediately.
