What is the device usage widget in the manual for the F7?

In the manual for the F7 there is a widget called device usage, what is it and how would one access it, I don't have a F7 yet but this piqued my interest and didn't see it mentioned anywhere else.

This clearly begs the question of "when will we get our first beta firmware?"!

Please wait in line, next beta must be for Fenix 6, to get me the health snapshot and other Fenix 7 goodies...

That's funny that it's listed in the manual, it really shouldn't be. It's a widget that only comes on Beta firmwares that you can download from this forum, it is not an available widget in standard release firmware. It's so that beta testers can debug battery drain issues and such on beta firmwares. (I just checked, and it is not available on my 7X with 7.20 firmware)

Tomorrow. If not then, it'll be the day after.

Can I get a picture of what that looks like? I haven't installed a beta firmware yet due to issues I've had with even the regular firmware but since I'm a suckered for more detailed diagnostic information about our devices I might just despite the risk.

I don't have beta firmware on anything right now, so I can't. But if I'm remembering correctly, it's not terribly exciting.

I've had three different beta versions on my F7 Sapphire Solar and I don't see the Device usage as an available widget. Anyone have an idea what I'm missing?
