How Much Time Do You Spend on YouTube? Find Out Now

Watch a lot of YouTube? At present there'due south an easy fashion to see exactly how much fourth dimension you spend watching videos on the Google-endemic service—if you're dauntless enough to confront the truth.

YouTube now shows the amount of fourth dimension yous've watched today, yesterday, and over the past seven days. It as well shows a daily average. This new "time watched contour" is available on iOS and Android; to check it out, sign into YouTube, tap your Account icon, then tap Time watched.

The feature is an extension of the digital wellbeing initiative Google announced at its annual I/O developer briefing in May to help consumers keep their tech habits in check.

As part of that initiative, YouTube has already introduced a feature that lets you set upwardly reminders to take a intermission.

"Once y'all know how much time yous're spending in the app, you may desire to gear up a limit," YouTube Production Management Director Brian Marquardt wrote in a blog post. To do that, open the YouTube app, tap Settings > General > Remind me to accept a break, then select your reminder frequency. Then, once you've reached that limit, a notification will pop up on your screen.

Some other recently added feature will combine all your daily YouTube push button notifications into one "scheduled digest" that yous'll receive at a time you specify. To enable it, open the YouTube app, tap your Account icon and then go to Settings > Notifications > Scheduled Digest, and select your desired delivery time.

You can also disable sounds and vibrations from YouTube notifications during specific time periods each day. To set that up, open the YouTube app, tap your Account icon then go to Settings > Notifications > Disable sounds & vibrations, and select your desired start and stop time.

Look for more digital wellbeing features in Android Pie this fall.
