If you’re like most people, you probably spend a lot of time on your iPhone. But there are some things you can do to make sure your iPhone is healthy and doesn’t over-burden your life. Disable Screen Time The first step is to disable screen time. This will prevent your iPhone from tracking how much time you spend on each app or on the phone as a whole. To do this, open the Settings app and tap on “Screen Time”. From here, you can disable all of the features that track screen time. This includes the ability to see how much time you’ve spent on each app, how many notifications you’ve received, and more. Limit App Use Another way to limit your iPhone’s screen time is by limiting which apps can use your phone’s data or battery. To do this, open the Settings app and tap on “Data Usage”. From here, you can see which apps have been using the most data or battery in recent days or weeks. You can then decide whether or not to allow those apps access to your phone’s data or battery in future sessions. ..


Screen Time records and gathers information about how you use your iPhone. If you don’t find the feature useful, or you have an alternative available, it’s easy to turn this feature off. Here’s how to do just that.

Later, to start getting your phone usage statistics again, you can re-enable Screen Time on your iPhone.

When you turn off Screen Time, you may be asked to enter your Screen Time passcode, so keep that handy before following the following steps.

Disable Screen Time on Your iPhone

To start the Screen Time deactivation process, launch the Settings app on your iPhone.

In Settings, scroll a bit down and tap “Screen Time.”

Scroll down the “Screen Time” page to the bottom. There, tap “Turn Off Screen Time.”

In the prompt, select “Turn Off Screen Time” to confirm your choice.

If asked, enter your Screen Time passcode to disable the feature.

And that’s all. The feature is now disabled and it won’t run until you manually activate it again.
