I recently discovered that the Digital Wellbeing app deletes the data that is one week old. Is there any setting that can be enabled so that the app keeps all the records and does not delete any? Also if it deletes the data that is one week old why does it allow us to go past one week and then it shows us that our screen time is zero minutes in that particular week? (check the screen recording below). I mean if it deletes the data then it should not even allow us to go past one week, right? But it does and it shows that our screen time is zero minutes. Why is that?

The screen recording

But you know what? The app lets me go all the way back to 15 May (nearly a month) after which it cannot go further back. But of course it is showing that my screen time is zero minutes for all the days past one week.

If you change the date from device settings to the last seen date (here your last seen is 15 May), you can see another past month's data...
.
I think it's made to show last 1 month data from current week...

But I would say that a few days ago I actually manually changed the date and time of my device for doing a screen recording for some work (the screen recording had to have a particular date and time). But after that I changed my setting to automatic date and time. Could it be that me changing the date and time of the device caused the data in the Digital Wellbeing app to have been corrupted? I mean I remember changing the date to something like January 20, 2021.

Nope... I don't think so... it's should not effect the data except for that changed date ...
