An independent publication for the people who sit too much.
MNUVE covers the apps, research, and habits reshaping how desk workers spend the eight-plus hours a day they hand over to their chair. We review reminder apps, compare movement tools, follow the behavioural-design lineage from BJ Fogg through to today's chair-villain mascots, and try not to fall for any of it.
We do not run paid placements as editorial. We do sometimes earn referral revenue when readers download apps we cover; that revenue does not change which apps we cover or what we say about them. If a kitchen timer would solve your problem, we will tell you that.
Health claims are sourced to the AHA, Harvard Health, Mayo Clinic, and peer-reviewed work — not to "studies show". We use language like "associated with", "may help", and "linked to". We do not claim apps cure anything.
MNUVE is a small editorial team. Pieces are bylined "MNUVE Staff" until we have specific authors with consented bylines.
