Excluding a particular app from Screen Time

I've recently become more diligent in tracking my own screen time, but am getting frustrated that my child's baby monitor counts towards my Screen Time data. The monitor is left on all night so my data is skewed to 10+ hours daily of Screen Time. Is there a way to exclude that particular app from the data? I've had to purchase a different screen time monitor app with this functionality but would really prefer to use the free native app.

They shouldn’t practically be counted towards my screen time. Or some baby monitor apps which keeps the screen on but you rarely look at screen constantly. [Re-Titled By Moderator]

Can I limit total screen time on my Apple device? Hello, Do you know if Apple allows limiting total screen time per day (not by app but total time irrespective of when and how you use that total time)? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

iPhone Screen Time widget shows inaccurate usage data I want to use the screentime widget on my IPhone, but the screentime displayed does not match the actual screentime. Sometimes, it shows that I've used my phone for almost 2 hours in a one-hour period, which doesn't make sense. Hopefully, an Apple dev can look at this and fix it. Thank you.
