SHENOS

Most cycle apps tell you what's happening in your body. SHENOS tells you what to do with it. Your energy, appetite, sleep and strength shift with your cycle — you know that already. The hard part is what to do about it. SHENOS looks at where you are today and turns it into something concrete: what you eat, how you move, when you rest. MEET NOMI Nomi is your companion inside SHENOS. She knows your cycle phase, your goals and everything you've logged — and she talks to you in plain language. No charts to decipher, no comparison to "the average woman" who has nothing to do with you. Ask her anything: "Why am I so tired this week?" She answers from your data, not from an article she found somewhere. LOGGING IN SECONDS Photograph your plate and Nomi sees what's on it. Or just say "I had oats and a coffee" — done, no form to fill in. Food, water, movement, sleep, mood, supplements: all in one place. The more you log, the better the guidance fits you. YOUR CYCLE, EXPLAINED A clear calendar with your logged and predicted days, expected ovulation and fertile window, and your basal temperature over the last three weeks. Guidance per phase on food, hydration, training and recovery. We never call an estimate a fact. While SHENOS is still learning your rhythm, it says so. FOUR PILLARS, EVERY DAY Nutrition — what to pay attention to in this phase. Hydration — your own goal, not a standard two litres for everyone. Movement — when to go hard and when easier is better. Rest — recovery is training too, not something you earn. PARTNER CONNECT Share where you are in your cycle with one person you choose. He installs SHENOS free, enters your code, and sees your phase, what to expect, and things he can actually do — suggest an earlier night, cook something warm, keep the week lighter. He never sees your logs, your numbers, your mood or your conversations with Nomi. You decide what is shared, you see exactly what he gets, and you can stop at any moment without his cooperation. Included with SHENOS Pro — your partner pays nothing. WEIGHT MANAGEMENT, ONLY IF YOU WANT IT Switch it on and SHENOS calculates calorie and macro targets for your body. If you don't want it, you will never see a calorie in the app. The longer you track, the better SHENOS understands what normal looks like for you: how your energy moves, when cravings hit, which symptoms arrive together. APPLE HEALTH Connect Apple Health and your sleep, workouts, steps and water arrive in your logs automatically. Read-only: SHENOS never writes anything back. FREE AND PRO SHENOS Free includes 3 AI interactions a day. Logging your food, water, sleep, mood and cycle stays free and unlimited. SHENOS Pro adds unlimited AI coaching and food analysis, plus Partner Connect, your daily focus card and weekly tips. Try it free for 7 days — cancel before it ends and you pay nothing. IN ENGLISH, DUTCH AND BAHASA INDONESIA Fully translated — including everything Nomi says. YOUR DATA IS YOURS Your health data is private, encrypted, never sold and never used for advertising. You can delete your account and everything in it yourself, at any time, from inside the app. GETTING STARTED Sign in with Apple, Google or email, answer a few questions, and you'll have guidance the same day. Reminders are optional and only arrive on days you haven't logged. SHENOS is a wellness and education app. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and is not a contraceptive. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional about your health.
