[SOLVED] Any way to get last times a Mac screen was unlocked? (not the last log-ins)

Rodion15 · Jul 20, 2018

I'd be immensely grateful if someone helped me know when the screen was last unlocked (much better a list of the last unlocks). With unlock I mean when you lock the screen then you have to unlock it by entering the password after the screen got locked. I guess this is registered in some log file or there's some Terminal command to get this. I don't mean log-ins (I know you can get that with the "Last" command).

Your Mac logs about everything it does. All of these logs can be accessed in the built in “console” program located in /Applications/Utilities on your Mac. If you type the word “wake” (no quotations) in the search bar, it will tell you when the display was last turned on.

Here is an article going into more depth of the Mac’s logging functions:

Sorry I didn't answer you before, I'm still researching this, see post Any log in macOS to get the last usage of a Mac (logged in and the screen unlocked)?
