Ratings and reviews

This app was only useful for me for the 'Bedtime mode' to automatically turn on DnD when my phone was charging at night. However, for the past month or so, it turns on bedtime mode randomly in the evenings. It seems to be outright ignoring my chosen setting of 'while charging' in favor of trying to guess when I might be going to sleep. So far it's guesses have been 100% wrong. Please stop trying to guess, and only turn on when you're plugged in.

digital wellbeing has helpful features, settings,and permissions , used to promote healthy screentime. such as focus and bedtime modes. however the app has been modified with many additional permissions that cannot be removed,disabled or changed in any form that allows the app to change settings to device system without my knowledge. it connects and pairs to any and all bluetooth devices, among many other disturbing actions that i have no control of

Apparently many people have problems now with being asked to select Moto or Microsoft as the home screen app launcher regardless of how many times you choose "always". This is quite irritating. I found a You Tube video with suggestions to fix this bug in a recent upgrade. Guess I'll have to disable the digital well-being app altogether because the other fixes suggested didn't work.

What's new

Several bug fixes and stability improvements.
