luna, a ‘big sister’ health and wellbeing app (available on both Android and iOS), is helping girls and people with periods aged 11-18 navigate the challenges of adolescence with medically approved, tailored support across a range of topics – from periods and puberty, to mental health, social media, and relationships.
luna is the first app of its kind to offer a holistic health and wellbeing platform tailored specifically for teenagers.
While many period apps focus on cycle tracking – often with features more suitable for adult users – luna was built with the realities of teenage life in mind, offering a safe, expert-led space for teens to learn, reflect and ask questions.
The vast amount of health and wellbeing information now available online, and on social media, often leaves teens overwhelmed or misled. luna was created to offer an alternative: a trustworthy, medically safe resource that teens and their parents can rely on.
“Our goal with luna is to give teens a resource they love and know they can trust,” says Jas Schembri-Stothart, Co-Founder and CEO of luna. “Social media, Google and AI tools are full of unchecked myths, misinformation and unfiltered advice. luna is the antidote to that – it’s all been checked by doctors, and everything is designed specifically for a teen audience.”
luna’s features include a medically reviewed learning hub with 800+ articles, quizzes and videos, a personalised period and mood tracker, and a tool to ask anonymous questions to a team of qualified health professionals.
The app also regularly debunks trending myths from platforms like TikTok, helping teens separate fact from fiction when it comes to their bodies and mental health.
“luna isn’t just about periods – it’s about the whole teenage experience,” adds Jas Schembri-Stothart. “We cover self-esteem, healthy relationships, exam stress, online safety – all the stuff that really matters to how teens navigate adolescence, but is often overlooked.”
To keep the app accessible, luna is free to download on both iOS and Android globally (except in the US), with optional premium features available.
For readers of The Family Grapevine, luna is offering a special discount for those who choose to upgrade to premium, which they can access by following this link.
luna’s mission is simple: to create the most connected, educated and empowered generation of teens when it comes to health and wellbeing.
