If you want to manage the time you spend on your iPhone, Apple has introduced a helpful feature called Screen Time. This feature helps you keep track of your app usage, set time limits for app usage, and restrict access to certain apps or content. Here is a step-by-step guide to using Screen Time on your iPhone:

  1. Go to your iPhone's settings app.
  2. Scroll down and tap on the 'Screen Time' option.
  3. If you haven't set up Screen Time before, tap 'Turn On Screen Time'. Otherwise, tap 'Use Screen Time Passcode' to set up a passcode for Screen Time.
  4. You will now see a dashboard of your device's usage for the current day. You can tap on any app to see more details about its usage.
  5. To set a time limit for an app, tap on 'App Limits' and then 'Add Limit'. Select the categories of apps you want to set a time limit for, and then select the amount of time you want to allow for each category.
  6. If you want to restrict access to certain apps or content, go to 'Content & Privacy Restrictions' and toggle on the feature. From here, you can set restrictions for apps, websites, and other content.
