Apple today released macOS Big Sur 11.5, the fifth major update to the macOS Big Sur operating system that launched in November 2020. macOS Big Sur 11.5 comes two months after the release of macOS Big Sur 11.4.
The new macOS Big Sur 11.5 update can be downloaded for free on all eligible Macs using the Software Update section of System Preferences.
MacOS Big Sur is a minor update focusing on small changes and bug fixes. According to Apple’s release notes, the update improves the Podcasts app by allowing the Podcast Library tab to be adjusted to show all shows or only watched shows.
It also fixes an issue that could prevent Apple Music from updating the number of plays or the last played date in the library, and it fixes a bug that prevented smart cards from working when connecting to Mac M1.
MacOS Big Sur 11.5 will likely be one of the last updates to the macOS Big Sur operating system as Apple shifts its attention to macOS Monterey, which is slated for release this fall.
