What Is Screen Time?

Screen time has become a major health concern as average daily usage continues to rise. The average person now spends 6+ hours per day on screens, with phone screen time alone averaging nearly 4 hours. Excessive screen time is linked to poor sleep, eye strain, reduced physical activity, and mental health issues. iOS has a built-in Screen Time feature that tracks usage, but tools like Minimalist Launcher go further by actively reducing the time you spend on your phone.
