Digital wellbeing tools built into the latest Apple mobile software aim to help people reduce the time they spend looking at screens.
In common with some services on Google’s Android, the Screen Time app generates weekly reports showing app usage, notifications received and even how often you pick up your phone. Personal timers can “limit” app usage.
Ahead of the full iOS 12 rollout the Guardian’s Samuel Gibbs wrote about his experiences using the app, and now we would like to hear from readers. How are you using the apps and what you have learned about your usage? Maybe you’ve been surprised and are going to do something about it? Perhaps you had been hoping for some way to monitor usage for yourself or family members?
