A touchpad and a trackpad both refer to a flat, touch-sensitive surface used to control a computer’s pointer, typically found on laptops. The terms are often used interchangeably, but "trackpad" is commonly used by Apple for their devices, while "touchpad" is a more generic term used for similar input devices on other brands. Functionally, there is no significant difference between the two.
