Screentime showing 24 hours a day

The screentime shows 24 hours of screentime, but its greyed out. Only the colored part of the screentime is shown in the spesific apps/catagories, so according to that list the screentime is lower.

This makes the weekly report always say 24 hours a day, which ruins the reason for using screentime.

If the Screen Time feature on your iPhone is showing 24 hours of usage, it can be due to three possible reasons that I know of.

Check if your iPhone's time zone and date settings are accurate. If they are not set correctly, it can cause Screen Time to display inaccurate usage data. Adjust the settings by going to "Settings" > "General" > "Date & Time" and ensuring they are correct.
Combined Device Usage: If you have multiple iOS devices linked to the same Apple ID, Screen Time can aggregate the usage from all devices. This can result in a cumulative total of 24 hours if the usage from all devices is combined. See the pic below that may help you.
You may be looking at the total Screen Time for the week. Please see the same pic above.
