ill have a look into this for you and see why this is happening.

Tonight at midnight it showed around 30 minites more. I checked and it is not exactly 1 hour or 30 minutes, which in my experience is normal. Every screen time program has some minutes difference between them.

I attached two screenshots.

Also, my Android is a LineageOS 20 based on 13 and it doen"t have the Digital Wellbeing app.

That app you use to check times does it disregard any app at all if it does then that could also be a reason why. I myself don't track these it's built into android itself and I don't disregard any apps in the time displayed. Even being on the home screen still displays time.

Hey, I don't believe it disregards any apps. When I look at the list of apps it measures the screen time of it seems to include all, even the home apps I don't use (with 0 seconds).

I'll test it a bit more and get back to you.

A question: Does it reset at 00h phone time? Because I think that at 00h phone time it already has 30-60 minutes on it.

But I'll test it more and write here.

Thanks!

So I waited for the clock to reset at midnight and used it very little. It not only shows more scrren time than the other app, the screen time shown is higher than the time passed after midnight, see clock.

When it would be fixed? Confusing so much

[CreativeCodeCat]

hello so i have been playing about and i have gotten it as close as i can but do keep in mine If you're still not seeing the same numbers as in Digital Wellbeing, there may be additional internal logic used by Digital Wellbeing that isn't exposed via public APIs.
