Why Does My Screen Time Data Clear When My iPhone Dies?
Asked by

I've noticed that my Screen Time data gets reset every time my iPhone 13 dies. This happens with my current iOS version 18.6.1. Is this a common issue?

It sounds like a glitch. You shouldn't let your battery drop below 20%, but that shouldn't cause your Screen Time data to clear. As for your iOS version, it's worth mentioning that 18.6.1 is outdated. If you're looking to fix bugs, updating to a newer version like 26.2 might help, even though I know some people worry about updates not being friendly to older models.

BatterySaver88: I've heard mixed reviews about the new iOS messing things up for older iPhones. I get why you'd be hesitant to upgrade, especially if the current version feels stable despite this issue. It's just wild that a phone shutting off can wipe such data, right? I purposely turn mine off sometimes to help break my screen addiction!
