I have racked up a heady 1 day and 11hrs since January 2013 but to be fair I am nearly always around wifi access points so most of my communication is done over instant messaging/facetime/skype and doesn't ever show on my usage.
I'm also on 1 day and 11 hours, since the September 20th last year.

A day and a half in almost a year isn't too bad I suppose!

Having googled it apparently your lifetime call time gets ported over to a new phone when restoring from a backup. The only way to reset it is to set yourself up as a new phone. So for me it goes back to my first ever icloud backup which is some time ago.

Thank god for that, I was getting worried. Although I tend to work on earphones so I can type as I talk but I thought 50 days was a lot of usage

14 days but pretty sure I've done factory reset at some point; assume that wipes it?

That'll go up when iOS8 and Yosemite come out as I imagine I'll start using the phone through my Macbook Pro rather than picking up the landline.

I've had my iPhone 5S since the first week of release and I've done 2 days, 3 hours. Who the hell uses a smartphone to call people? biggrin

Hmmm

Lifetime: 58 days 18 hours.

Upgrade on 21st September, so 23 months or so...

I don't think I use the phone!

I was expecting one of the screenshot to show an icon for downloaded data from one of the less salubrious Apps...shame

You are all lightweights, as of last night I was at:



About 4.5hrs a day on the phone, I'm surprised it's that low!

No additional brain tumours yet ;-)

I think I am in the minority these days of finding actual voice to voice contact far the most efficent way of communicating my requirements or intentions to people. I can't do text and e-mail on a phone is painful.

It would be interesting if there was a counter for hours/days spent texting. I am sure my phone call tally would be pretty insignificant compared to some!
