It would be nice to be able to have screen time tracking in app

since ios screen time only records the app used, so users can only see how much time they have been using livecontainer

implementing screen time inside livecontainer itself would allow users to know which apps actually took up their screen time

This isn’t possible as all guest apps run inside the LiveContainer host process. For the iOS system, they are not separate apps, they’re all just part of LiveContainer itself. That’s why system Screen Time can only track usage at the container level, not per guest app.

I think he's asking LiveContainer to track the time for each app and have it viewable in LiveContainer, not the system tracker @m1337v

Commenting to add support for this. Bonus points if there's a widget for it that can accompany (or replace..?) the existing regular Screen Time widget.
