Martin Morávek, the developer and founder of minimalist phone, came up with the idea when he noticed how people were overusing social media during the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to mental health issues. Utilizing his background in psychology and machine learning, he designed the minimalist phone app to discourage excessive screen time by customizing the user interface to be monochrome and less visually stimulating. With an initial investment of only $3,100, the app now generates an impressive average monthly revenue of $20,000 and is on track to reach 500,000 downloads on Google Play.
