User reviews

Great app for focus work, study

The app has a beautiful and very smooth UI. It helps me focus more on studying and working, and avoids wasting too much time browsing social media.

My screen time has been cut drastically

Super easy to setup. Much better than apple’s screen time, and the evidence is I’ve massively reduced my doomscrolling!

Really helpful

If you're looking for a sustainable way to reduce screen time and build healthier phone habits, Monk is definitely worth trying.

Great tool

Honestly I’m always skeptical going into these apps wondering how much it’ll help. This one is built different and it ACTUALLY makes you step back and think if you want to bother scrolling Reddit for 15 minutes or more. Thank you!

A Thoughtful Way to Reduce Screen Time

I’ve been impressed with how well this app is designed. Instead of simply blocking apps, it encourages mindful habits and helps break the automatic scrolling cycle. The interface is clean, modern, and easy to use, and the progress tracking makes it motivating to stay focused. It’s a refreshing approach to digital wellness that feels supportive rather than restrictive. Highly recommended for anyone looking to reduce distractions and be more intentional with their screen time.
