tomsguide.com

Google is launching a new feature in its Digital Wellbeing app to help users monitor app usage more effectively. This feature, now called "Screen time reminders," notifies users when they exceed a set time on an app. Previously known as Mindful Nudge, this feature provides a small notification at the top of the screen after a user has spent a designated amount of time on an app. Users can enable this option in the Digital Wellbeing settings. This update is part of Google's ongoing efforts to enhance user control over phone usage. Other improvements include updates to Google Maps and adjustments to Android 16 for easier access to Quick Settings.
