Does anyone else find it really annoying there’s no way to get actual on-screen time from a full charge?

From what all I can tell, we either have the option to see in Screen Time a calculation that resets at midnight or in Battery for a 24hrs duration.

With Android, you’re able to see the actual on-screen time you’re getting from a full charge. I find this much more useful since it gives an accurate representation of how much battery life you’re getting, not just how much you’ve used your phone since midnight or within a 24hr (or 7 day) period.

I don’t understand how Apple can get it wrong so many times when they add new features.

Hehe, k so I’m not the only one who thinks they’re a bunch of morons.

I wonder how many people who have these complaints actually submit feedback to Apple. I always do if I have an issue. If enough people complained, maybe Apple would actually do something about it.

Anyway, I’ll search next time for existing threads.
