Screen Time

I checked my screen time a few days ago and I saw that I spent 18 hours in settings, which is not true, because I rarely open them, mostly for software updates. Anyways, I didn't think much of it and I checked it today as well, only to see this. Is there something wrong with my phone, or perhaps something ruling in the background?

Greetings snaddr, 


If you tap on the Settings entry here, does it provide any additional information? Also, if you go to Settings > Battery, are you seeing anything using more battery than expected? With something using that much screen time we may see a spike in battery usage that can offer a clue as well. 


Let’s also check that all software updates are installed in Settings > General > Software Update. 

Next, if you haven’t already, we’d like to have you force quit the Settings app and restart your iPhone, just to refresh things. Restart your iPhone

Then keep an eye on the usage over the next couple hours and see if the usage for Settings is still very high. 


Thanks.
