Does a Samsung S6 phone log when it is switched on / off? If so how do I access the logs & how far back does those logs go?

The earliest target date is 20th July 2020. The phone is not permanently on, it is used as a screen device for a RC model.

Thanks

@Sean-Mck: I've looked into this for you, and wasn't able to find any native options/settings that log when the phone is switched on/off. Later Android versions offer this information in Battery and Device Care > Care Report > Restart History, but this isn't available on Android 8.

Thanks for looking Andrew.

That's a pity, oh well.
