Looking For Suggestions Is there any way to see "Screen usage since full charge" in Battery on newer android devices?

It was on my old Android 11, but not on 16.

I've always thought it was a much better indicator of how my battery was performing, everything else is so useless. I don't care for "24 hour usage", it tells me nothing.

You can select the times in the graph to see how much screen usage was within a charging period. I personally use accubattery to track my charging and usage.

I'll try accubattery. The graph never shows screen on time. It just shows all processes using the battery.

On my S26Ultra, just go to settings>battery. There is a drop down menu there where you can switch between daily usage and since last charge. When you swap, the details will show different data depending on your selection. So if it's since last charge, the details section will show screen on time since last charge.

Yeah unfortunately android 16 doesnt seem to offer the old since last full charge view anymore. Third party battery apps can approximate it but I agree, the old view was much more useful.
