History

Google launched Digital Wellbeing in 2018.[8] It was introduced as part of Android 9.0 ("Pie").[9] The first stable release was made available in November 2018, exclusively for Google Pixel and Android One devices.[10]

Features

Digital Wellbeing is installed via the Google Play Store, and appears as an additional item in the settings app.[9]

Digital Wellbeing includes a dashboard showing the time consumed for each app, the number of notifications received and number of screen unlocks. It also introduces new "Do Not Disturb" and "Wind Down" modes; the latter mode switches the screen to a grayscale mode for a specified start and end night time, to discourage night-time smartphone use.[9]
