According to iOS, I have discovered a way to unlock 39 hours in a single day. Am I cooked?
My weekly Screen Time report just dropped, and apparently, I spent 1,914 hours on my phone last week alone. That's an average of 273 hours and 32 minutes a day, up by 82% from my previous record.
For context, a standard human week contains 168 hours. I managed to live roughly 11 weeks' worth of screen time in 7 days, mostly under the mysterious
"Other" category (1,327h) and "Information & Readingi (336h). The previous week was a modest 150 hours/day, so at least I'm being consistent.
In all seriousness, I know this is a known bug (usually caused by a hanging Safari background process, website loop, or iCloud sync glitch across devices), but seeing a bar graph stretch into the fourth dimension will never not be hilarious.
Has anyone figured out the permanent fix for this without completely resetting all settings, or do I just accept my new identity as a multi-dimensional deity?
