iOS sometimes bugs out like that when Screen Time gets stuck on an app you barely opened. Usually the quickest fix is toggling Screen Time fully off for a minute, rebooting, then turning it back on. If that doesn’t nudge it, signing out of iCloud and back in has worked for someone I know.

That is the sort of glitch that made me give up on Screen Time soon after it was introduced.
