GNOME 44 quick settings updates (bluetooth, background apps)
shell-introduction
and shell-exit
include details about the quick settings menu (aka system status menu, aka system menu). This has changed for GNOME 44, so these pages would benefit from updates.
Specific notable changes:
- Subtitles added to each button - gnome-shell#5770 (closed)
- A new bluetooth menu has been added - gnome-shell!2501 (merged)
- There's a new item for background apps down at the bottom - gnome-shell!2624 (merged)
The background apps menu might deserve some attention:
- It lists Flatpaks which are running without a visible window.
- The goal is to allow people to check if a particular app is running, plus to provide information on what's happening on the system.
- Users can prevent individual apps from running in the background, from the app settings.
