The place to come for key terms made easy
------------------------------
Screen Time
This is a relatively new feature on Mac and iOS designed to make users aware of how much time we are spending on our devices. Located in System Preferences or the iOS Settings app, Screen Time monitors how long you spend in apps and allows you to impose restrictions.

Shared With You
This is a new iOS 15/ macOS Monterey feature that makes it easy to find and view content that your contacts have shared with you through the Messages app within the apps that the content is designed for, such as Photos and News.

Voice Control
This is part of the Accessibility suite of settings in macOS and iOS that lets you control your device using your voice. Once set up, you can use it to perform gestures and actions within certain apps without having to physically touch the device.
