MoveMonkey

Sedentary Reminder & Stand Up Reminder

Download on the App Store

When work keeps you in your chair, a little monkey reminds you to get up, but only after you’ve sat too long.

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.

On your wrist, too: iPhone and Apple Watch remind you together

Tap Get Up, walk for just a minute, and this little monkey cheers for you.

Getting up is a win! Every minute you’re up and moving earns a cheer

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.
Quiet when it should be: No reminders before you’re up or during your lunch break
  • The little 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.

Hit your daily goal, and you’ll earn a banana award, too.

The core features are free forever, with no ads.
