Apple will introduce “digital health” features to help users manage device usage time

Apple is expected to introduce digital health features for Apple products such as the iPhone and iPad at the upcoming WWDC Global Developer Conference. The so-called digital health function helps users to record the usage time of each application and records the overall time the user uses the device within a certain period of time.

There is not much outflow of news about this function at present, but according to the convention, Apple will publish the new iOS system namely iOS12 operating system on WWDC.

Therefore, the digital health function will almost certainly be officially launched with the release of the iOS 12 operating system, and the explanation will have more detailed instructions for use.

Google also added a similar feature in the Android P version, which helps users to record the trajectory of each application in a very detailed manner. It is interesting that the Android P version also allows users to set an application to use time, if it exceeds the use of time then it prohibits the user to open again. This feature should be very useful for parents to control children’s use of devices or applications, and interested users can pay attention to this function.
