# Meevee

> Meevee is a calm, ad-free video app for children aged 2 to 6. Parents set the session length, Mookee (a claymation monkey) hosts the session, and screen time ends well: no ads, no autoplay, no algorithmic feed. Every session has a beginning, a middle and an end, closing with a guided off-screen wind-down. Built by an Amsterdam-based team in partnership with researchers at Tilburg University. Available on iOS with a 14-day free trial.
