Hi,

I used my base 2020 13' Pro this afternoon with Sidecar, and after just 10 minutes roughly, the MacBook was extremely hot. This seems ridiculous when I was only using it as a second screen for Spotify. Is this an issue with Catalina, Sidecar or the MacBook?

Anyone else experienced this?
 
I am using Sidecar with a MacBook Air and iPad Pro 12.9. It causes the fan to come on after about 10 minutes, though I wouldn't say it was overheating. This is the only time I hear the fan on this MBA.
