How do I set different time limits for different apps at the same time? Say I'm on a Minecraft hiatus and want to set Minecraft to 0 daily minutes, but also want Instagram to be at 14 daily minutes?
Also, how do I lock the camera app's own brightness so it doesn't change when I'm recording a video?
To set app timers on Samsung, go to Settings > Digital Wellbeing & parental controls > App timers, tap the hourglass icon next to an app, set your desired daily time limit (e.g., 30 mins), and tap OK, which will dim and close the app once the time is up, resetting at midnight. You can also use the Digital Wellbeing widget on your home screen for quick access to manage multiple apps and schedules, say, for weekends.
Method 1: Via Settings (Standard)
Open Settings: Swipe down from the top of your screen and tap the gear icon, or find the Settings app icon.
Navigate: Scroll down and tap Digital Wellbeing & parental controls.
Find App Timers: Tap App timers (it might be under "Ways to disconnect" or you might see a chart).
Set the Timer: Find the app you want to limit, tap the hourglass icon next to it, choose your time (hours/minutes), and tap OK or Done.
Confirm: The app icon will dim, and it will close when time runs out.
