Monkeyless: Reduce Screen Time

If you want to stop your screen time from reaching over 10 hours a day like me this is the app for you! last night i tried the meditation infinite sleep and i was asleep in 30 seconds no joke! anyways i love this app is so many different ways i definitely recommend this to everybody!!❤️

I’m a student and my screen time is one of my greatest weaknesses, this app has helped me reduce some of the anxiety I have around my screen time. I especially love the guided meditations as someone who’s heard of the wonders of meditation, I’m glad this app finally got me started. After reaching out for a free trial for students, a developer of this app offered me a refund of my original purchase, offered me a free trial, and consistently made sure I was supported via emails. Haven’t had customer support this great ever, thank you so much sincerely to the Monkeyless team for caring about their users <3

as someone who is super phone-addicted but also obsessed with productivity hacks, I have tried everything under the sun (including brick device and lockbox with timer, lol). but my monkey brain always finds ways to bypass each barrier, and those workarounds quickly become muscle memory. so far this app stands out for a few reasons: 1) it doesn’t allow blanket break times - each blocked app needs to be unlocked individually. this is usually annoying enough to dissuade me from trying, which stops the ~drift~ into other forms of time-wasting. 2) unlock screen reminds you of all the different reasons you actually DONT want/need your phone, which often humbles me into putting it back down. 3) tying unlocks to a daily meditation is actually genius, and may be the first thing to actually keep me building a consistent habit. I will say the design/UI are pretty basic - doesn’t feel as polished as other similar apps I’ve used. but 10 STARS for the functionality and underlying idea. I honestly think society could be healed by installing it on every phone. THANK YOU to whoever dreamed this up!!
