I noticed several problems with your approach.

• You are missing time.set(Calendar.SECOND,0) and time.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND,0)
• Precision is lost in the division ft=value.totalTimeInForeground/60000

I would recommend Java Time (ThreeTenBP) to handle DateTime and Duration more accurately. I create a new function to compare and indeed the results are different.

fun showtime2(){
    val start = LocalDate.now().atStartOfDay(ZoneId.systemDefault()).toInstant().toEpochMilli()
    val end = ZonedDateTime.now().toInstant().toEpochMilli()

    val usageStatsManager = getSystemService(Context.USAGE_STATS_SERVICE) as UsageStatsManager
    val stats = usageStatsManager.queryAndAggregateUsageStats(start, end)

    val total = Duration.ofMillis(stats.values.map { it.totalTimeInForeground }.sum())
    println("YOU SPENT ${total.toMinutes()} mins.")
}

Your output

YOU SPENT 577 mins.

My output

YOU SPENT 582 mins.
