If you no longer want to track your app and device usage on your Mac, you can turn off App & Website Activity in Screen Time settings. You can turn it off for yourself or for a child you manage.
Turn off App & Website Activity for yourself
On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Settings, then click Screen Time in the sidebar. (You may need to scroll down.)
If you’re using Family Sharing, click the Family Member pop-up menu, then choose yourself.
Scroll down, then turn off App & Website Activity.
After you turn it off, you can no longer track your app and device usage, notifications, or pickups, or set up downtime or app limits.
Turn off App & Website Activity for a child
On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Settings, then click Screen Time in the sidebar. (You may need to scroll down.)
Click the Family Member pop-up menu, then choose a family member.
If you don’t see the Family Member pop-up menu, make sure you’re signed in to your Apple Account and using Family Sharing.
Scroll down, then turn off App & Website Activity.
