Does exactly what I need in the most minimalist way possible: shows my daily cumulative screen time directly in the notification bar with no added title or text. The app itself is one page showing the on–off times in a clever radial barchart with a slidable dot to set the time of "day change" — i.e., the time of day when the screen time resets. That setting was the only feature which was not immediately intuitive to me; perhaps an initial hint bubble could have helped, but that's being picky.

Does what it says, no bugs for me. The graphics are very useful for seeing the usage at a glance. I also use it to know how much I slept last night, in a gross estimate, assuming I looked at the screen last thing and first thing to look at the time, but it gives me a very good idea.
