Screen Time shows 24h of Settings use

Hi,


Screen Time never really worked for me, not on my old iPhone and yet still not.

It didn’t work on my iPhone 7, not on my iPhone X and on both iPhone 12 Pros (2 because i broke one).

I took it like that because i don’t really care how much i use my phone but i still want to use this apple feature bc i think its kinda cool.


When i tried to look at my screen time it only showed me the „As you use your iPhone your Screen Time will be displayed here“ message.

It was like that all the time, no matter how long i waited for it to go away.


Now it shows me my Screen Time so i guess apple fixed some kind of bug.

I don’t really know.


but now it shows me everyday 24h of Screen Time, whenever i don’t use my phone „Settings“ is sort of „using“ it.


Maybe someone can help me or at least tell me what this is all about.


Thanks!

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 15

Hey there schnippschnappp,


We'd like to help look into why your Screen Time usage isn't showing accurately, so let's rule out some possible causes:


  1. Sometimes unexpected behavior can be resolved with a restart: Restart your iPhone
  2. As you're using a compatible model, the latest version is iOS 16.1.1. You can verify this within Settings > General > About. In case you needed it, this link shows how to first back up, then Update your iPhone or iPad.
  3. When did this start to occur?


Cheers!
