How Do You Move Sidecar to the Right of Your Mac?

When you’re using Sidecar to use your iPad as a second monitor for your Mac, the iPad screen is to the left of the Mac display by default. But that doesn’t always align with your workspace setup, and you can move the screens around to make them make more sense. Here’s how.

What’s the Best Orientation for Sidecar?

The placement of your Mac and iPad depends on several factors, including the size of your workspace and what makes sense to you, personally. For example, if you’re using your iPad as a drawing tablet, you should probably put it “below” the Mac in Display Preferences. If you use an iPad stand on your desk, it might make more sense to put it opposite your mouse (that is, on the left if you’re right-handed). In this case, you’d match the screen layout to their actual positions on your desk so it makes the most sense. You won’t find many setups where it makes sense for the iPad to be above your Mac, but the option remains available.
