Hey everyone! So I love using the text editing features that appear on the touch bar when typing in Pages, Word, or other text boxes that allow for the use of bold, italicized, underlined, and other text editing and customization features. For some reason, though, MacOS doesn't show these tools on the Touch Bar in Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides. It DOES show them when composing an email in Gmail, though. Does anyone know why I experience this or if there is a way to fix this? I would really love to get more use of the touch bar in Docs. The Touch Bar even gives me these features in the text box for this post...

It works on chrome browser but google have yet to add it for their docs software as far as I can tell. Each individual developer will have to add it to their software for it to work Mac OS has no control of other people’s software.
