I have a 2019 MacBook Pro that's showing a 'SERVICE RECOMMENDED' message for the battery. If I schedule an appointment at the Genius Bar, will I need to leave my Mac there, or can they fix it on the spot?

Yeah, you'll likely have to leave your MacBook there. Most Apple stores take about 7-10 days for battery repairs because they usually send it out to a repair center. It might be quicker that way, so keep in mind that it’s good to back up your data before handing it over, as there's always a chance of data loss during repairs.
Thanks for the heads up! I was worried about data loss, so I’ll definitely back everything up first.
