Why does my MacBook Air show Vimeo in Screen Time without Vimeo usage? Is anyone having an issue with Vimeo showing up in screen time for many hours and random days despite not having the app or visiting Vimeo website? I have never heard of this app, much less used it but my macbook screen time is saying that i have 21 hours of screen time on it, which i do not as i updated it last night and used it for uni all day today. This is showing up on my MacBook Air. I only use youtube and apple tv on my macbook so am so confused ? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Screentime on MacBook always says "As this device is used, screen time will be reported here." Hello, I just got a new MacBook, turned on screen time. but whenever I visit the screen time, I find it says, "As this device is used, screen time will be reported here." But it sends me notification every week about my screen time. I just can't see any details from the app usage section from screen time.

Screen Time Usage on macOS for YouTube sometimes >10h Hey, I'm using Screen Time on my Apple devices and have set certain limits to limit my time on social media. However, I'm currently experiencing a bug, which annoys me. My Mac sometimes tracks usage for YouTube, although I'm sleeping. This night I was browsing YouTube from 0 am to 9 am while asleep. Unless I'm sleepwalking, there is something horribly wrong with ScreenTime on my Mac. This issue persists since I bought this MacBook Air M2 in August. It happened on macOS Monterey and it still happens on macOS Ventura. The wrong screen time only gets tracked, while the Mac is sleeping. It does not make a difference if a YouTube tab is open or closed, while the Mac is sleeping. I've reset ScreenTime countless times, however, this does not seem to solve the problem.

The only Vimeo app for the Mac is the one used for content creators to upload content.

It's probably referring to videos serve up on the Vimeo website. They may have been embedded in other web pages, which would explain why you don't recognize it.

One can embed a video from just about any source on just about any website, so sure. That could be.

Do you think it could be embedded in the patreon website? That's the one I've used to watch content, not vimeo directly.

Thank you for the response
