Touch Bar

Before with my Touch Bar it would change depending on the app I was on (e.g. on Word the bold/underline/italics feature came up as an option and on YouTube a slider came along with the video enabling me to skip to different part of a video) but now no matter what I am on my Touch Bar stays the same. how do I get this back?


MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15
