MoveMonkey: Stand Up Reminder

Take a Break, Get Up & Move

Free

MoveMonkey is a sedentary reminder and stand-up reminder for iPhone and Apple Watch. It tells you when to get up and move, and it also works on iPhone alone. Choose a time from 30 to 90 minutes. Sit that long without a break, and a little monkey nudges you. Tap Get Up, walk for just a minute, and he cheers for you. FITS YOUR DAY • Even getting up for a glass of water counts. When Apple Watch or iPhone records you walking, or the Health app records you standing, the timer resets on its own. No need to open the app. • Got up without your iPhone or Apple Watch? When you’re back, tap Just Moved to log it yourself, and the timer resets too. • The monkey waits for you. In the morning, the timer starts only once you’re up. Turn on Mute During Lunch Break, and when you’re busy, tap Pause. • Shows in the Dynamic Island. Tap Get Up on iPhone, and even with the app in the background, you’ll see the timer in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen. • Each hour you stand lights up a block on MoveMonkey’s home screen. Tap them, and they chime one by one, like a music box. If you haven’t reached today’s goal yet, the melody stops short, waiting for you to add the final chord. WORKS WITH THE HEALTH APP • With your permission, MoveMonkey reads stand and step data from the Health app, and steps from Motion & Fitness, to tell how long you’ve been sitting, time your reminders, and count your stand hours. • If you turn on Save as Workout, each walk of at least a minute on Apple Watch is saved to the Health app as an Indoor Walk workout. It’s off by default. • MoveMonkey processes Health data only on your iPhone and Apple Watch and never uploads it. To deliver reminders on time, your devices send the reminder times they calculate to the developer’s server; these contain no Health data. The core features are free forever, with no ads.

Ratings & Reviews

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

• Your settings, and the times you got up using Just Moved or Get Up, are now stored in your own iCloud, so they come back when you reinstall the app or move to a new iPhone. • After you’ve sat for your set time, Apple Watch and iPhone now get the first reminder together, so it no longer arrives late on iPhone. • Once you’ve sat for an hour, reminders no longer give an exact number of minutes. They say something like “more than an hour” instead. • If you don’t get up after a reminder, later ones are spaced further apart, up to 2 hours. • On Apple Watch, a reminder’s Pause for 1 Hour button is now Pause…, so you can choose how long to pause. • If you’ve added MoveMonkey’s filter to a Focus to pause reminders, they resume sooner on iPhone and Apple Watch when that Focus turns off. • The privacy policy has been updated.
