Overview

Behind the four detail views, screen time, unlocks, scroll distance, and notifications, sits one shared container. It keeps a floating tab bar on screen while the content underneath changes, so switching between metrics feels like flipping between pages of the same book rather than opening separate screens. It also owns the small tools every detail view shares: the help sheet that explains how to read the data, and the way removed apps are grouped so their history stays visible without cluttering the list.

How it works

1

Switch between the four views

A floating bar at the bottom shows the four metrics. Tapping one expands that button and shrinks the others while the content fades and scales into the new view, so the change reads as a smooth transition rather than a hard cut.
2

Show the right title and help

The header updates to the selected metric, and an info button is always available. Opening it reveals a help sheet that explains how to read the charts, a color legend for the heatmaps, and short tips specific to the current view.
3

Keep history for removed apps

When you uninstall an app you used, its past data is not thrown away. The container groups uninstalled apps under a Removed Apps entry, which you can open to see exactly how much time or how many notifications came from apps that are no longer on your phone.
