Redesigned Screen Time for Greater Control
The macOS 15.5 update puts a spotlight on parental control with improvements to the Screen Time feature. Apple has made it easier and more intuitive for parents to oversee their children's Mac activity. Enhanced scheduling options, detailed usage reports, and customized app limits are highlights, helping parents strike a balance between digital engagement and downtime. With the updated dashboard, you can now monitor device usage and set daily or weekly restrictions with just a few clicks.
Performance Tweaks and Bug Fixes
Beyond parental controls, macOS 15.5 also delivers a suite of under-the-hood enhancements. Users will notice smoother multitasking, quicker app launches, and a more responsive interface overall. This update also addresses stability issues reported in earlier versions, with patches designed to reduce crashes and bugs, ensuring a reliable environment across both Intel-based and Apple Silicon Macs. While these changes may not grab headlines, they work together to create a more dependable macOS experience.
