When doing the math on screen time , it doesn’t add up. Any idea why ?

Hey XYZ-123-,


We see you have some questions about the calculations for Screen Time.


To get started, do you have multiple Apple devices signed into the same Apple ID, if so check if "Share Across Devices" is toggled on under Settings > Screen Time. If so, this data incorporates your averages from across all of your devices.


Additionally, as the data points represented are averages, if you have a weeks worth of Screen Time data, do the daily metrics add up to approximately your weekly average? If they do, things appear to be working as expected.


If they do not however, reach out to Apple Support directly for additional assistance.


Take care.
