Why does my iPhone's Screen Time go back only 9 days?
I have not deleted, nor turned Screen Time off/back on. Does the IOS 16.1.1 update delete Screen Time prior to the install?

Hi dtwallace12,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. Updating shouldn't delete your Screen Time history. It may not be related to data or connection, but it might be best to try another network to test whether the same happens there. That may isolate the issue a bit.
When you go to your report as shown in Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support by going to Settings > Screen Time, scroll down to your most used apps. You should see 'This Week' appear at the top with arrows. When you tap the back arrow on the left, is it blank or what happens?
If this is blank and nothing has changed, you may need to reach out to Apple Support since this sounds unexpected. Screen Time is an Apple feature and may need further investigation.
Take care.
Thank you for your response. As an update, my wife updated her iPhone to iOS 16.1.1 when I posed the question on here. At first, her Screen Time data did not change (still went back four weeks). The next day, ~24 hours later, her Screen Time data went back only to the time of the update. I’m interested to know if other users are having the same experience.
