24 hours on Mac Screen time

I apparently got 24hrs on screen time on my MacBook Air, it even said I've passed my app limits even when I haven't even watched YouTube.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.5

hello, genieen16

I did set it up for myself on my Mac, but it seems to have been a bug. then I turned screen time off then restarted my Mac and then turned it on.

afterwards there seemed to be no issue up until now, and today morning I updated to macOS 11.5.2

so I think apple may have fixed it.

thanks.
