Monk vs Train with Pasta

One calm place for your daily practice. Build the habits you want to keep. Make space from the patterns you want to leave behind. Monk brings habits, meditation, fasting, phone-free time and reflection together, so you can see your days more clearly. A PRACTICE THAT FITS YOUR LIFE Track reading, movement, meditation, breathwork and your own habits. Set a daily goal, choose specific weekdays or work toward a weekly rhythm. Keep private commitments alongside the habits you are building. SEE YOUR DAYS CLEARLY Use the calendar to review your record and correct past days. See your practice time, fasting history and progress by week and by month in one place. Return to your routine without turning it into a competition. KEEP YOUR HABITS CLOSE Bring your calendar and progress to your Home Screen with widgets. Use Lock Screen widgets for a quick view, and follow fasts, phone fasts and practice timers with Live Activities (widgets and the fasting Live Activity are part of Monk Pro). Private commitments stay off widgets and shared cards. MAKE ROOM FOR PHONE-FREE TIME Set a phone fast with a clear beginning and end. Optional Screen Time controls help you block distractions, with ordinary sessions for everyone and strict sessions in Monk Pro. FAST WITH INTENTION Start free with five fast lengths: 13, 16, 18, 20 or 23 hours. Set your own goal and eating window with Monk Pro. Follow elapsed and remaining time with a clear timer. Keep a record of completed sessions and see your fasting history at a glance. MAKE MONK FEEL LIKE YOU The default look is free. More looks, including Stoa, Zen, Vesper and Rose, are part of Monk Pro. Explore light and dark looks, choose day or night artwork, and select your app icon. Arrange Today around what matters to you (Monk Pro), with separate controls for fasting and phone-free time. PAUSE AND REFLECT Make room for a daily thought, a short reflection or a quiet practice. Optional Apple Health access reads and writes Mindful Minutes only, with your permission. YOUR PRACTICE STAYS PRIVATE Use Monk offline without an account. Your practice stays on your iPhone unless you choose cloud sync and Sign in with Apple. Export your record when you want a copy. No ads in the app, and no tracking across other companies' apps and websites. Monk does not include Meta's software and does not ask for your advertising ID. Two choices are off unless you turn them on: Usage analytics sends usage statistics to PostHog in the EU, and Ad measurement lets Apple tell Meta and us, in delayed and grouped reports that do not identify you, whether one of our ads brought you to Monk. Neither includes anything you record. You can change both in Settings. FREE, WITH MONK PRO IF YOU WANT MORE Monk is free to use: 3 habits, two quits, a choice of five fast lengths, ordinary phone fasts, to-dos, week and month progress, your whole calendar and record, and export. Monk Pro adds unlimited habits and quits, limits instead of a full stop, Monk Mode, custom fasts and the fasting Live Activity, Strict Phone fast, all looks, arranging Today and the calendar, more breathing patterns, widgets and to-do reminders. Choose a monthly or yearly subscription (the yearly plan starts with 7 free days for new subscribers) or buy Lifetime once. Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel; cancel any time in the Settings app: tap your name, then Subscriptions. Lifetime is a one-time in-app purchase and does not renew. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. If you bought Monk before, you keep everything, for good.

Pasta builds a workout or plan for you. Hold to talk ("Let's work on legs today") and let go. You get a full session: exercises, sets, reps, rest. Don't like the lunges? Say so and Pasta swaps them. Found a workout on YouTube or on a web page? Paste the link and Pasta tries its best to turn it into a session. WHILE YOU TRAIN Voice guidance during your workout, on every set and rest. Timers work on Live Activity as well as home screen Widgets. Check your heart rate using Apple Watch or any supported Bluetooth heart rate monitor. PLANS Tell Pasta what you're training for. "A half marathon in December" or "a Hyrox event in 6 weeks". It plans selected workouts around days you can train. Use Personal Context or connect Apple Health for more personalized plans. PROGRESS Workouts save to Apple Health and count toward your rings. Insights shows heart-rate zones, active minutes and training load, plus a readiness check from your latest HRV. SIRI Say "Create workouts on Pasta", or ask what's on today or whether you're ready to train. Siri answers out loud, card included. PRIVACY No account. No ads. No tracking. Apple Intelligence builds your workouts on your iPhone, and everything you track stays on your device. REQUIREMENT Requires an iPhone with Apple Intelligence (iPhone 15 Pro or newer). WHY PASTA? Al dente means "to the tooth". Firm, with a bit of resistance. That's the whole idea. Also, you've earned a plate after leg day. MEMBERSHIP The first 7 days are free. Then $9.99 a month, $99 a year, or $299 once. Prices vary by country. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
