How to use

  1. Check your phone's digital wellbeing or screen time page for daily averages.
  2. Enter weekday and weekend hours (decimals are fine, e.g. 4.5).
  3. See your weekly, monthly and yearly totals.

Good to know

Weekly total = weekday hours × 5 + weekend hours × 2. A year is that × 365.25 ÷ 7. 5 hours on weekdays and 6 at weekends is 37 hours a week, about 1,930 hours or 80 full days a year.

The share of waking time assumes about 16 waking hours a day. Add your age under More options to see the total up to age 80, which can be a striking way to see the long-term effect.

There is no official screen limit for adults, but long sitting and late-night screens are linked with poorer sleep, eye strain and less activity. The 20-20-20 rule helps eyes: every 20 minutes look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. For children, the Indian Academy of Pediatrics advises no screens under 2 and at most 1 hour a day for ages 2–5.
