Screen time share across devices?

[Pravda]

Just wondering what the general census is, have it set to on or not? And those that have it enabled, does is still show how much screen time is on individual device and the sum off all of them? Or does it just show you the total screen time used?

Thanks.

When enabled the first page shows the device specific screen time, selecting all devices shows the total usage for all devices.

Guessing this is a bug.....I have an iPhone and iPad. I turned ON the share across devices, but then I decided I didn't want that. However, even after turning off the sharing and turning off/on screen time on each.....it's still stuck with the All Devices view by default. If you select the other device, no data is shown. Kind of annoying though.

I’m having the same issue. Going to try to do a hard reboot on both devices and keep the, both off for a few minutes and reboot.
[doublepost=1537232084][/doublepost]The bug is still there. Shows all devices all the time when you exit settings.

Yup same here. Seems that at least it's just a labeling issue.....as there is never any data for the other device.

My OCD wasn’t having it. Ended up doing a restore from the morning off before I upgraded to iOS12 on both iPhone and iPad.

Finally back to before I decided to share screen time across devices. iPad only shows iPad and iPhone only shows iPhone. Life is good. Lol

I'll be doing a backup and restore when my XS Max arrives Friday....will be interested to see if that fixes it or not. Thankfully I'm not looking at the screen time too much.

Yes, seeing the same thing. Note that on my phone it seemed to delete all the existing days of tracking data when I turned sharing on (its like it just started again from that point) and it did not come back when I turned it off. Perhaps the data is there and the issue is purely that there is a bug with string turning off.

I did a backup and restore to my new XS Max. That fixed this issue on the phone. iPad still shows All Devices.

Yes, same issue here. Any known fix?

Mine does show old devices too where I have enabled screen time. I only want to see one device.

 

[Irishappletech]

yeah this is very annoying too

Apple weren't meant to fix this back in 12.1 I think ive notice improvements but see a gap of 2 across both devices sometimes its perfect sometimes though. only a gap of 2 so its no major but still nice to have it working as it should be. perhaps it would be an idea to leave feedback for them too

Does selecting 'share across devices' mean that all of a child's devices will be limited if they use up all their allocated time on one of them?

I have it ticked but for some reason my child is still able to move from iPad to iPhone once their time is up and continue playing/being online.

Or maybe it kicks in automatically the following day (after midnight)?
