    Screen time vs activity time


    I don't have limits set for my child's account, but the activity time is always higher than the screen time, and on the same Xbox one. How is that possible? Would setting a screen time limit lower the activity amount to match?

    :)

    Xbox screen time in weekly activity report email not matching screen time in recent usage

    Hi,

    I receive a weekly activity report email showing my child's screen time per day on the xbox. I can also see my child's screen time within the Recent Activity section of my child's profile within my Microsoft family account. The problem is that the data
    sometimes doesn't match, i.e. for a given day the email will show one value but the recent activity within my account will show another.

    Has anyone else experienced this issue and know how to resolve it?

    Thanks,

    Jason

    Xbox screen time in weekly activity report email not matching screen time in recent usage

    Hi George,

    Thanks for the reply. I'm noticing the discrepancy on days in the past where usage can no longer change. For example, if I look today at the period from Sun Sep 23rd to Tue Sep 25th inclusive I get the following data:

    Email report:

    Sun = 1 hr 41 mi

    Mon = 0 min

    Tue = 58 min

    Recent Activity in account:

    Sun = 1 hr 41 mi

    Mon = 0 min

    Tue = 0 min

    You'll see the reports match except for Tue, where the recent activity is missing data. I think this is a bug, how do I go about reporting it?

    Thanks,

    Jason

    Incorrect Screen Time Activity?

    This would make so much sense. I will have to check to see if he left it on! Thank you. (The weekly email showed over 60 hours for the week, which is why I am monitoring it more closely these days.)

    Incorrect Screen Time Activity?

    Did he leave his Xbox on? Because my daughters done that before and I've wondered how its shown her as online for 15 hours in one day (I actually thought she got up after I went to bed and played all night).

    There is a small delay in time but not a lot. I cant find the page but it allowed me to see what she was on each day separately and also which games and apps once, I cant find the page anymore.

    Also if that's the email you get once a week about activity then its activity for the week which means your son has been on the xbox less than 2 hours a day

    If you are looking at the account page, it will show you the average for each game and app your son has been on
