I'm unable to delete app timers on my s21fe
There no option to uncheck all the application and save
And there is no option to set multiple app timers for multiple apps

Anyone facing this issue?

It seems like you're experiencing some limitations with the App Timers feature on your Samsung Galaxy S21 FE.

Workarounds
1. *Individual App Timers*: You can set individual app timers for each app by going to Settings > Digital Wellbeing & parental controls > App timers. Select the app you want to set a timer for, and then choose the desired time limit.
2. *Delete Individual App Timers*: To delete an individual app timer, go to Settings > Digital Wellbeing & parental controls > App timers. Select the app with the timer you want to delete, and then tap the "Delete" or "Reset" option (depending on your Android version).
3. *Use Third-Party Apps*: Consider using third-party apps like Freedom, SelfControl, or Cold Turkey, which offer more advanced features for managing app usage and setting custom timers.

Reporting the Issue
If you're experiencing issues with the App Timers feature, I recommend reporting it to Samsung's support team. They may be able to provide additional guidance or forward your feedback to their development team for future improvements.

To report the issue:

1. Go to the Samsung Members app on your device.
2. Tap the "Support" or "Help" section.
3. Select "Error report" or "Feedback".
4. Describe the issue you're experiencing with App Timers.
5. Submit the report.

By reporting the issue, you'll help Samsung's development team identify and potentially address the limitations you're facing with App Timers.

I've already reported the issue
And I'm not talking about parental controls within the digital wellbeing app itself I don't see an option to set multiple app timers and to delete/turn off the app timers

I've seen these features on one my old device Mi note 10 pro

So the feature is made available. Once one UI 7.0 hits your phone you will be a happy man. 😊

I'm not sure weather this feature was available with the one ui 7 or it's only the issue with my device
But I've seen this feature with the devices with android 10,11 and 13

I've received a ref number from the samsung customer support and I might receive a call from them in sometime so let's see 🤞

Thus it looks device specific or they removed it in one UI 6.1 🤔
