Hi, I’ve got a feature request. It would be nice if the Digital Wellbeing android app gets included in the Companion app of HA. It’s a default/ root app of Android.
So that a new sensor can be created which tracks the amount of time I use my phone. (Screen time) but also which apps I use the most.
under the motto measuring is knowing!
Thanks

This would be a very helpful metric for managing automations and alerts for the whole family.
Unfortunatelly this has never made it into the companion app, but for anyone following the request, I built an open source app that reads the same usage stats as Digital Wellbeing and sends them to HA.
Every phone becomes its own device with minutes on the phone today and yesterday, plus the top five apps (and their minutes), and it will be stored in the long-term statistics. For a family that means one device per phone, and, for example, “more than two hours today, send a notification” is a possible automation then.
It needs Usage Access on the phone, nothing else.
