Apple could just make it obvious when something is recording the screen. If there is an orange dot what it means is a mystery, sometimes there is no further info in control center so you have to guess was it some recent discord call or you got pwned. Simply fixing that would address a lot of the problem. Is that better in Sequoia?

- tambourine_man 2y agoThat already exists, right? I’m guessing they are concerned it’s too subtle.
- throwaway290 2y agoNo, what I meant doesn't exist in current macOS. I record screen often so I just checked:) There's an abstract orange dot on control center and often no further info if you expand control center. Sometimes the dot is there even though I didn't record. Which app did it? Who knows.
