Lunaria is a calm health diary with a caring AI companion. Log your mood, symptoms, meals and water in seconds, and the app quietly adds the context around you: weather, air-pressure trend, air quality, pollen, moon phase, and sleep and activity from your watch. • Log moments of your day with a single tap — no spreadsheets, no effort. • See yourself on an interactive body figure and mark where it hurts. • Discover real patterns (“headaches often follow fast pressure drops”) — computed privately on your phone. • Talk to your companion about how you feel; attach a photo or a voice note. • Prepare a clear summary for your next doctor’s visit. Privacy first: your diary stays on your device. Tracking is, and always will be, free. Lunaria is a diary and companion — it does not replace medical advice or diagnosis. In an emergency, contact medical help. Lunaria Plus (optional): unlimited AI companion, full pattern analysis and predictions, calorie and macro goals, doctor export, biometric lock and themes. Monthly or yearly subscription with a 7-day free trial; renews automatically, cancel any time in App Store settings.
