Feature Request | Customisable Screen Time and Session Notifications (Time, Starting, Ending)

Feature Requests đź‘€
#1

I would love the ability to choose which sessions I get notifications for. For example I like the 5 minute warning my work session is about to start but I don’t want a notification that my sleep session is about to start or stop. It would be nice if we could choose which sessions we are notified for with a toggle within the session set up
Thx

App “reminders”
notification timing feature

make it so whenever you set a time limit for an app, you can choose to have notifications reminding you how much time you spent already or how much you have left (ex 1h limit, tells you at 30 mins “only 30 mins left on app x”

So hey dear Devs, I was just brainstorming how I can reduce my screentime even more. And I evaluated my usage and I recognised, that I often find myself just being stuck in an App unintentionally, for more time than I should be.
So my Idea is just to get an option to remind people of their actual usage.

Like just a setting where you can set yourself reminders that you are actually using the app in form of a notification: “Hey you are using your app!”
Or the blocking screen like the focus mode.

Just to really remind people that they are using the phone or app.

I hope you all understand my broken English and my idea

I have my screen time on social media set for 1hr but by the time i know i’ve been on it for an hour i only have 1 minute left since the notice that i’ve almost used all my time comes up 1 minute before it’s up. It would be nice if the notification was customizable because often it’s easy to lose track of time how long you’ve really been on the app. If you could make it notify you when you have 45,30, or 15 minutes left that would be super helpful.
