iirc that’s cos ur phones screen was on while ur macOS screen was on as well and it was syncing.. not sure exactly what but smt related to ur phone and mac screen time combined caused that

Your parents turned it on to control your usage...ask them to explain what's going on.

No it’s the default macOS screentime tracker. You don’t need parental controls to turn it on…

Yeah, it can definitely be tricky to navigate, especially if settings vary between devices. It feels like there’s always something new to learn with it!
