Prior Day Screen Time Reporting

Is there a way to see prior days’ Screen Time report? For example, once it rolled over to midnight today, can I view yesterday’s activity? It seems like a reasonable thing to want to see.

Hey there, schalliol!


Thanks for reaching out on Apple Support Communities!  Being able to see where I’m spending most of my time on my iPhone is crucial to keeping me on task, so I’d like to help.


It looks like you have some questions about how to see your Screen Time usage on previous days.  To do that, you’d go to Settings > Screen Time > Tap the Graph.  From here, you can select Last 7 Days (this may be less if you’ve recently enabled the feature) and see the breakdown for each day, and you can tap and hold to see your Screen Time overview for each day on the bar graph.


You can also tap on a specific app to see how often you used that app each day, or tap Show Categories for detailed information by category.

Have a great day!

I know I can see the total hours for a day, but I'm trying to see the activity in more detail on that day, which was collected. For example, at 12:00 AM, nothing shows up in the single day and I can't see what sites or apps were used yesterday…or even what categories beyond a tiny chart with no labeling but the full on total time. It should be possible to tap and see the days activity like today, but it isn't possible as far as I can tell. Thanks!
