Aside from a plethora of much-talked-about features like the iOS-style control center, eye-catching iMessage effects, and the fun-loving Memoji stickers, the one little but neat macOS Big Sur feature that has caught my eyes is – Fast User Switching. As you may have already guessed, it lets you enable fast user account switching in macOS Big Sur – without having to take the pain of logging out. If you still take the long route to switch between macOS user accounts, it’s about time you enable Fast User Switching on your Mac to jump from one account to another with ease.
“Fast User Switching” is disabled by default in macOS Big Sur. Thankfully you can enable it without having to dig deep into the setting. What’s more, the latest iteration of macOS allows you to add the user account switching icon to the menu bar and control center for convenient access. Let me show you how it’s done the right way:
- Next, scroll down and click on Fast User Switching.
While the “Fast User Switching” may not have got much attention, it’s a notable addition to the macOS. Especially for those who have to share their Macs with others. If you are one of them, you would be glad to have it at your disposal.
