If you don’t like too much violence or gore i’d stick with Monk. However, it’s still crime related!

The first season is like one long Law and Order SVU episode and it’s awesome

The two that come to mind first are Cruel Summer and The Sinner. They are SO interesting you should 100% give them a try. If you like suspense I think you'd like these.
Cruel Summer is 2 seasons long, each season being a standalone.
The Sinner is 4 seasons long, each season is a standalone but I would recommend watching it in order because they mention things from previous seasons.
Here is a SUPER quick description/summary for each show:
Cruel Summer Season 1:
Super sweet popular girl goes missing. Socially awkward girl low-key steals her identity. Popular girl reappears and accuses awkward girl of being a witness to her kidnapping. Everyone hates awkward girl. Secrets unfold and lies are exposed. You have to watch to the VERY end.
Cruel Summer Season 2:
Friend trio. Sweet coder girl, foreign exchange student party girl, and nice guy. Coder girl's family takes in party girl for a year (because she's a foreign exchange student). Coder girl and party girl become bffs but then they both develop a crush on nice guy (who has been coder girl's best friend since childhood). A tape gets leaked and nice guy is killed. Secrets unfold and more lies are told. You have to watch to the VERY end.
The Sinner Season 1:
A mother is at the beach with her husband and son. She sees a random couple kissing and listening to music and out of nowhere, repeatedly stabs the guy. Detective figures out what her connection to him is and why she killed him. CRAZY season my favorite out of all of them.
The Sinner Season 2:
11 year old boy poisons and kills his parents back in the detective's hometown. Detective figures out why they were killed, if they were his parents, and if anyone he knows is somehow involved. Also an INSANE season.
The Sinner Season 3:
Car crash. One man survives, another dies. Something seems fishy. Detective digs into the survivor's past and discovers many worrisome, disturbing things. Psychological torture. Still a good season, but not as good as the other two.
The Sinner Season 4:
Detective is on a walk and hears a girl crying. He finds her, but only as she jumps off a cliff. People are suspicious of the detective, he is suspicious of them. Are things what they seem? Meh season. The show goes from SUPER GOOD to REALLY GOOD to kinda good to okay. I still watched all seasons though.
Do with this what you will!

Murder mysteries are marvelous. Their detectives are delightful. If you liked Knives Out, you’ll love this new tv show.

I find that when I am really into a new hobby that doesn't require my phone I tend to be super into it and forget about using my phone. For example: Lego building, jigsaw puzzles, reading fiction books, etc. You can do it!!!
