Hello, I am reaching out because I have been having problems with my screen time today. It is not adding up correctly. About half an hour ago, it was at 1 hour and 45 minutes, and now it’s at 10 hours. I manually added up how much it reported I was on each app, and it came out to be about two hours. I’ve updated my software, restarted my Iphone, and checked my Icloud. How do I fix this?

What do you have selected? There are two sections: week and day. It’s possible that one time, you looked at the daily average for the week, and then you looked at day. I’ve gotten confused this way myself.
If this isn’t the case, then submit a bug report on the iPhone feedback page.
I’m sorry that I couldn’t be of any more help.
EDIT: Also, refer to TheRealSilas’s reply when he says that you may have been checking the Screen Time of two of your Apple devices.
There also was a bug in early iOS 18 versions and iOS 18.2 is said to have resolved the issue.
Check what devices that is for. For instance the original time could have been for only your phone but ten hours could be screen time for all devices if you use a Mac or Apple Watch or something.
Also check if it is still on today or if it is for the last week or something now!! Hope this helps!!
