Tap to click on your Macbook’s trackpad

Macbooks come with a built-in trackpad that you can press anywhere to manually “click” the mouse (with the mouse being your finger). You can also set the trackpad to accept a single tap as a mouse click.

Macbooks come with a built-in trackpad that you can press anywhere to manually “click” the mouse (with the mouse being your finger).

You can also set the trackpad to accept a single tap as a mouse click. Even a light and gentle tap on the trackpad will act as a mouse click.

To set your Macbook’s trackpad to accept taps as mouse clicks, open your System Preferences and click “Trackpad”.

Then just check the “Tap to click” option at the top left of the screen.

Your trackpad will now let you tap, instead of requiring you to click.
