Step by step

1. 

   Open Digital Wellbeing and parental controls

   Open Settings and tap Digital Wellbeing and parental controls. The circle shows today's screen time, split by app.

   Done

2. 

   Tap App timers

   Scroll down to Ways to disconnect. App timers is the first row; ours said No timers set.

   Done

3. 

   Tap the app

   Your apps are listed A to Z, each with an hourglass. Tap the app's name; we used Calculator.

   Done

4. 

   Tap App Timer

   The app's page shows its screen time for the week. Under Settings, tap App Timer (No timer).

   Done

5. 

   Pick a time and tap OK

   Set app timer says the timer will reset at midnight. Turn the hours and minutes wheels, then tap OK.

   Done

6. 

   Check the timer

   App Timer now shows the time, 30 minutes on ours. The bin on the right deletes the timer.

   Done

7. 

   See it in App timers

   Back in App timers, Calculator moves up under With timers, with 30 minutes below its name.

   Done

8. 

   Check it is gone after the bin

   After we tapped the bin next to App Timer (step 6), the row went straight back to No timer, with no confirm box.

   Done

If you do not see this option

• Looking under Apps? Settings, Apps, Screen time opens App activity details: today’s screen time over a Mon to Sun chart, and a Set timers for your apps card.

  

• No App timers row? It is below the dashboard under Ways to disconnect; scroll down. Search Settings for Digital Wellbeing if the row is not in the list. Source: Manage how you spend time on your Android phone with Digital Wellbeing
• Want the phone quiet at night instead? Bedtime mode, also under Ways to disconnect, offered 23:00 to 07:00 on every day, with Use a schedule or Turn on while charging. We tapped Not now, so it stayed off. Source: Manage how you spend time on your Android phone with Digital Wellbeing

  

If this does not work

• Timer ran out but you need the app? Google says the app is paused for the rest of the day and its icon turns grey. Open the app's page and change or delete the timer. Source: Manage how you spend time on your Android phone with Digital Wellbeing
• Want a nudge, not a block? Screen time reminders, under Ways to disconnect, shows an occasional reminder of your time in an app. Ours was Off; the prompt has Cancel and Turn on. Source: Manage how you spend time on your Android phone with Digital Wellbeing

  

About this guide

MagicOS 10 uses Google's Digital Wellbeing for screen time. On our Magic7 Lite the dashboard showed under a minute, 1 unlock and 2 notifications for the day.

The screenshots are from our HONOR Magic7 Lite, the European model BRP-NX1M, with MagicOS 10.0 and Android 16 (build 10.0.0.169(C430E7R2P1)), in Dark mode, taken on 27 October 2026. We set a 30-minute timer on Calculator for the pictures, then deleted it.

Good to know

For the screen lock time instead, see change the screen timeout on an HONOR phone.

In short: Settings, Digital Wellbeing and parental controls, App timers, app, App Timer, pick a time, OK.
