Furthermore, the macOS Monterey 12.4 adds support for the 15.5 firmware, which is designed to improve the webcam quality for the Studio Display. For those unaware, the Studio Display had an issue with a blurry webcam, which was reported in a majority of reviews in the past. The iPhone maker has finally offered a fix via the latest macOS software update.
Additionally, there is an update for the Podcasts app, with Apple adding a setting that limits the number of episodes stored on a Mac and automatically deletes older ones to prevent the app from taking up too much storage space on the device. A similar feature has been rolled out to the iPhone and iPad devices via the iOS and iPadOS 15.5 software updates.
