That might be a nice novelty, but I really don't see any practical purpose. Data Sense is more practical, since it helps people from going over their data limits on their bill.

Hi Laura,
Thanks for your comment! But Screen Tracker will help you to track usage behavior of your phone. You can install app for your child phone silently to manage their phone time, even where they used. My wife used this app to check where I go to :)) That is just one small example for the practical of this application :)

That makes sense. I don't have any kids to track. If I did, I'd use this free app https://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/...-locator/a2fe74d5-c57f-44bd-8c12-9984b6aaaf9c

I've installed your app as part of the limited-offer promo, and so far I've used it to provide more insight into my phone usage. However, it seems that there are some bugs and I would list them here in this thread as we move forward. So far:
1. The live tile just stops displaying the number of times the screen was turned on. Then the count returns a few moments later without even doing anything.
2. The count for an entire day was reset back to zero. This happened only once, but it happened as early as the second day of using the app.
3. The app count resolution needs to be increased. It doesn't count the screen activation if, for example, I turn it on and off in under 60 seconds.
4. The app seems to be counting charging time as screen-on time, since the dial surrounding the large screen-on time count indicating the times when the screen was turned on shows that the screen was on even if it was not when the phone was charging.

Hope these help.

Latest updates has improved the performance of the app; I especially like the battery usage tracking feature.

Note: Make sure to enable "high accuracy" in the app settings. It will consume more battery, but it won't be noticeable - Battery Saver says the battery consumption is still <1%.
