About One Switch
One Switch puts a set of quick switches in the macOS menu bar. You can hide desktop icons, toggle Dark Mode, keep the Mac awake and stop the screen saver, start the screen saver manually, and connect AirPods, each with one click instead of digging through System Settings.
It requires macOS Monterey or later. A license is a one-time purchase with free updates, after a seven-day free trial, and the app is also available through Setapp. It is a different product from the open-source OnlySwitch.
