Track your daily screen time across all devices and compare to healthy guidelines.
Track your daily screen time across all devices and compare to healthy guidelines. This tool is designed to give you a quick, clear answer without any sign-up or extra steps involved.
This screen time calculator helps you add up the hours you spend across all your devices each day — phone, TV, computer, and tablet — and gives you a daily total and weekly summary. Knowing your screen time is the first step to managing it intentionally.
The World Health Organization recommends no more than 1 hour of recreational screen time per day for children aged 3–4, and sedentary screen time for school-age children (5–17) should be limited. For adults, there are no fixed guidelines, but research suggests that more than 6–8 hours of total daily screen time is associated with disrupted sleep, eye strain, and reduced physical activity. Separating work screen time from recreational screen time is important — what matters for health is the recreational component, not essential work use.
There is no hard limit for adults, but health bodies suggest keeping recreational screen time to 2–3 hours per day. Work-related screen use is considered separately. If you notice eye fatigue, disrupted sleep, or reduced social interaction, consider applying the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
