Digital Wellbeing counting phone functions such as alarm clock.

[anon12345]

Is there a way to exclude certain apps or phone functions from being counted as digital useage? For example, I set dozens of alarms every morning and snooze most so my alarm rings all morning until I get up. The digital wellbeing tracker will say I had 2hr screen time for the Samsung Clock and will display that in my oversl useage. My phone use will then say, for example, 4hr screen time instead of 2!

I think exactly same think. It is dissapointing when we are trying to get screen time goal.

Just noticed that uninstalling the Google clock has removed it from the Wellbeing logs, everything looks normal. 

Maybe try clearing cache and reinstalling if it's the Samsung clock causing hassle.

I noticed this was happening, but it was the Google clock app causing it - I've uninstalled so hopefully it'll go away.

Could be a conflict between the two clock apps? Or possibly Assistant related, just Spidey sense speculation.

Thanks for the tip! Can you clarify which clock is which? I'm not sure I have a google clock? About to search around!
