The PlayStation App does not have an officially documented, guaranteed screen for viewing game hours. Check your profile’s recent-games area in the app if playtime is shown there; if it isn’t, use your PS5 profile’s Games list for per-game hours or PlayStation’s stats page for your total PS5 playtime.
Check the PlayStation App first
-
Open the PlayStation App and go to your profile.
-
Look for your recent games and check whether the game’s playtime is displayed.
PlayStation’s official PlayStation App feature page describes the app’s social, game-download, capture, and Remote Play features, but does not document an hours-played menu or tap sequence. Treat the profile and recent-games area as a place to check, not a guaranteed way to find playtime; what appears may vary.
Find per-game hours on your PS5
If the app does not show hours, check the Games list on your PS5 profile. A third-party guide describes this as a way to view game-specific playtime: PS Playtime’s PS5 playtime guide. This is a console alternative, not an officially documented route in the phone app.

See your total PS5 hours on PlayStation’s stats page
PlayStation’s PS5 stats page offers personalized account stats after you sign in. It defines total hours as time spent in-game on a PS5 console or PlayStation Portal. This is a total, rather than a per-game list. Availability can depend on your account and market; a regional PlayStation page says it has no stats to show for a user who is not a PlayStation Plus member, so check the page for your region rather than assuming the same requirement applies everywhere. PlayStation’s UAE stats page is one regional example.
Checking a child’s playtime
For a child’s activity, PlayStation’s separate PlayStation Family app provides family monitoring, including a “Most Played” section for individual games and apps. It is a family-management option, not a view of an adult’s own game history in the PlayStation App.
