If I am only allowed two hours of screen time a day but my phone is in downtime mode and I allow a app like Netflix to be used during downtime, does that time count toward my 2 hours of regular screen time?
iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14
Hi there Baileyjb21,
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you’d like to find out if using an app during Downtime counts toward your overall app time limit. We’ll be happy to help.
If you’ve set up to limit the use of that app to two hours, using it during Downtime will still count toward that limit. For more information on using Screen Time, check out this resource: Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. We hope this helps.
Best regards.
