Everyday I set digital wellbeing timers to zero(0) and increase then by 5 minutes everytime I need access to an app, this is how I'm coping with my phone addiction. Sometimes if I extend an app timer to 30mins someday it remains the same and I will use the app for 30mins everyday until I realise and put it to 0-5mins again. So, is there a way to reset these timers everyday to zero ?

I check my screen time through the 'Digital Wellbeing and parental controls' option in the Settings of my MI phone. (Redmi Note 7) I manually calculated today's usage and it's around 2- 2½ hours. However, settings show 10 hr 30 min. I toggled to see the 'hourly' distribution and saw many of the apps being used at 4/5 AM. My phone was switched off during this time and I was asleep. It says I used 4 hr of YouTube today, yet the stats on the YouTube app itself says 30 mins. Is this a common bug? Or should I be concerned?

Is it possible to get the historical timestamps of when I have unlocked or locked my phone using USB debugging? Apparently, this data is tracked in Digital Wellbeing, but it is not necessarily easy to get too. This question was asked before without much success in 2021: https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/230211/how-to-export-phone-usage-time-data-to-json-csv-sql-txt-raw-form

My son is playing chess on the Chess.com app on his Android phone. I do not have issues with the total time he is using the app, but rather the time of day (e.g. just before school or late in the evening). How can I restrict the usage of the app for him for only certain times of day? Note that there are other apps (e.g. maps) that I do not want to restrict at all, so blocking the whole phone down is not an option.

I use [Digital Wellbeing's Bedtime mode](https://blog.google/outreach-initiatives/digital-wellbeing/improve-your-sleep/) to automatically turn my phone on silent for the night and back on vibrate for the day. In the morning, when it automatically turns on the vibrate mode at 7 am, it vibrates once. This annoyingly sometimes wakes me up. Consequently, I want to prevent my Android from vibrating once when I turn on vibrate mode. Tried: 1. I went to Settings > Sounds and vibration > Vibrate. Changing the Vibration intensity for calls to zero did the trick. Now my phone no longer vibrates when turned to vibrate. But it also doesn't vibrate if I get a call which is a bigger problem than what it solved. 2. I turned the sleep mode settings to a later point. Better, but possibly a problem if I missed an early call. How do I just disable the vibration when the vibrate mode is turned on, but keep all other vibrations intact?

I want to disable the Work profile on a schedule using Easer. I know Digital Wellbeing already provides this feature but it doesn't work for me, the app always crashes right when the Work profile is scheduled to turn off.

There are many apps like Google's Digital Wellbeing and another famous app called Action Dash. These apps show your data about how many times the phone unlocked, per-app usage stats, no of times an app launched, no of notification etc. How can I get all these data in raw format from my android phone? I basically want to use python to perform some analysis on these data.

I am using Nusantara ROM (Android 12) and my device is RMX2193. The device isn't managed by an enterprise so I can't understand this Digital Wellbeing shows

timers aren't available for work apps or fully managed devices

Please note that app timer is no longer a Pixel exclusive feature since the last few years. See the bottom-most part of the screenshot " class="img-fluid rounded" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto; margin: 10px 0;" loading="lazy">

I find myself wasting lots of time watching Instagram reels that I did not intend to watch. It is not good for me and does not help me achieve the goals I want to achieve. I have installed tools to help me limit the time I spend on certain activities on my smartphone and on my laptop, but now I'm looking for a tool to do this with Instagram reels in particular. Is there a way to block Instagram reels completely on the Instagram app on my Android phone?

I use Digital Wellbeing's focus mode frequently and set up a list of distracting apps that includes Facebook Messenger. However, regularly, while focus mode is enabled, I get Messenger chat notifications and when I check the list of distracting apps, Messenger is no longer there. Is there a way to force it to remain in the list?

I noticed that many applications are logged as part of **today usage** in Digital Wellbeing dashboard app, even though I have never opened those app for today (for example). I read [google documentation](https://support.google.com/android/answer/9346420?p=wellbeing_site&visit_id=637504389302044561-1193720974&rd=1#zippy=%2Cfind-out-how-much-time-you-spend-in-apps%2Climit-how-much-time-you-spend-in-an-app-each-day) and it doesn't really describe the details. My concern is + **Do those applications automatically running on background even though user doesn't use them?** (or) + **It is because of how google measure the activity?** Has anyone experience these before? 

Google have launched Digital Wellbeing features in newer Android versions, including Focus Mode. Focus Mode lets you select a list of allowed apps and block all others, during periods when you want to focus and avoid distractions. According to this blog post by Google , it is possible to schedule Focus Mode: > Their feedback inspired us to include a few new features with today’s launch. For example, we’ve added an option to automatically turn Focus mode on and off for the days and times that you choose (e.g. from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays). This is especially handy for setting daily schedules; you can minimize distractions during the hours you’re at work, school or home. My phone has Focus Mode, but it does not seem to have a way to schedule Focus Mode. How is Focus Mode scheduled on phones where this is supported?
