Howdy,
I’ve noticed that on occasion when my Mac is in sleep mode I am noticing an icon on the screen that I have not seen before. I am wondering if anyone else can let me know what it is.
It’s the one that looks almost like a pair of Binoculars next to the % of battery sign.
The binoculars icons mean completely different things and they can tell you different things:
- if you see it on the lock login screen, it means that your computer is actively creating a video of your screen
- If you see it while your computer is unlocked, it means that you enabled the “Remote Management” option on your Mac.
Thanks
Now I’m concerned about that answer 
I’ve had the same issue recently but I’m 99% sure it’s from Duet Display which has been barely usable lately - see comments in
reboot removed it
Yes. That makes sense. I tried to use it and was also gutted that it didn’t work since the Catalina update. Was pretty pissed off that sidecar doesn’t work on my 2015 MacBook Pro
Same. I ordered a Luna display to salve my wounds.
I’ve connected it, but haven’t used it more than a few minutes.
FYI, here’s a Sal Soghoian special which the Luna display makes possible (and is pretty crazy powerful if you’d like a remote button dashboard for your desktop!):
Oooh! Shiny!
Thanks!
