Which application do you use most on your Android phone?

Have you ever wondered what applications consume most of your time? Sure, you can give the most used application names but can't say exactly how often to use it. So this article will show you how to find information about using applications on Android phones and this way of searching is as simple as installing applications from Play Store.

To monitor application usage, we will use an application called Quality Time. This is a simple application that is easy to use and provides a lot of good information in an intuitive and completely free interface.

Set up and Use Quality Time

To get started, set up Quality Time and set up your account. You can log into Facebook if you want, otherwise just set up a new account from scratch.

When logging in, you will need to grant access to the application for Quality Time. Touch the " Permit " button, then " Quality Time ", then turn on the use access. This will allow Quality Time to monitor your application usage.

After that, Quality Time will start monitoring application usage. It will not see anything from before the application is installed (or before granting access access if the application is installed and not set up), so you will start with a clean dashboard will.

However, from now on, Quality Time will monitor your behavior such as the usage time of all applications, the frequency of application opening and the frequency of screen unlocking. It keeps track of this information on a daily and weekly basis, so over a long time it will be very helpful.

The layout is a bit different from most Android apps you've ever used, but once you understand how it works, you'll see Quality Time very effectively. The application opens on the Today screen, displaying all your activities from the current day with the beautiful timeline format.

Tracking will start every day when the phone is first opened. The application sorts application usage into sections because most of us don't turn off the display before launching a new application, but it also tracks idle time, meaning that the user time use any application. To see details, click on one of these clusters.

For a more general view of using the application for the day, swipe down the Today screen. This will switch you from the Today view to the Daily Usage view, allowing you to quickly see the most used apps and the time spent on each application. In addition, you can swipe left to see different information about application activity, such as the number of times to open each application and unlock the phone. You can also swipe through the use days at the end.

To see Weekly Usage Weekly , swipe the Daily Usage screen down. This screen will provide weekly usage information, you will see which applications are most used and how often they use and different weeks at the bottom of the screen.

Click on any application in Daily or Weekly view to see the corresponding details only for that application. From this view, you can swipe through a screen on the left to see the number of times to open the application. And below is the daily usage graph of that application.

Also on the Daily Usage screen, you can click on the date to display the usage chart. This is a pretty interesting thing to know when you use the phone the most. Note, the app usage chart does not change here, only the line chart at the end.

Additional features of Quality Time

That's all in the Quality Time main interface and it's very simple. However, there are a few additional features, such as a convenient "take a break" feature, that "force" you to stop using the phone for a certain period of time.

To access this feature, scroll to the bottom of the Today view page and touch the three horizontal bars at the end to open the menu. From there, click " Take a break ", there is a message that prompts you to set up a Quality Time profile.

You need to name the profile to get started, then select the break period by selecting to block notifications and / or calls. You can also allow some applications to use during this break.

Note : If you choose to block notifications, you will have to grant notification access to Quality Time and if you want to block calls, you will have to allow the application to access the dialer. Both options will be displayed if this feature is enabled.

Finally, you will need to specify " Exit Penalty Early Manual ", which is a timer that prevents you from using the phone if you want to stop earlier.

Once you have set the specific parameters, click the " Create " button at the top.

Note: After creating the profile, you cannot delete it without having to create a second profile. In other words, when the profile has been created, you must always keep the record.

Once the profile is set up, open the menu and click " Take a break " to use this feature. A new screen will show you the time you want to take a break (and go to any record if there is more than one profile). After setting up, just press the " Start " button to start the break.

At that time, you will no longer be able to use the application, but users can still press the Home button to enter the main screen, but whenever you try to launch an application, Quality Time will receive and start dynamic screen " break ". Unless you have set an application to be used during this time.

However, you can end your early leave by clicking the X button in the lower right corner. But, you will have to wait for the " Early Manual Exit Penalty " that you have placed earlier, so remember that. And in the meantime, you will have to watch the ad.

In addition, there are a few hidden features in the Settings menu of Quality Time such as specifications of usage, unlocking and even specific applications like IFTTT and Daily Recap notifications (enabled by default ).

The application also has an option to block the tracking of specific applications in Settings> Tracking .

Overall, Quality Time is a convenient application that allows quick viewing of phone usage. If you see too much time to use your phone, set the time for your eyes to rest.
