My Luna: Evolving with You, Empowering Menopause
My Luna, a mobile app that began as a simple tool to record hot flashes, has blossomed into a comprehensive and indispensable companion for those navigating the intricate journey of menopause. Its evolution has been driven by the invaluable feedback and insights of real-life users and focus groups.
Phase 1: A Humble Beginning - Hot Flash Tracker
In its infancy, My Luna was born from the desire to provide women with a means to track and understand the often difficult hot flashes associated with menopause. It was a straightforward, no-frills tool aimed at helping users monitor and manage this common symptom.

Phase 2: User-Centric Evolution - A Listening App
The real transformation began when we started actively listening to our users. Their reviews, feedback, and personal stories provided the inspiration to take My Luna to the next level. We understood that menopause is not a singular experience; it's a multifaceted journey, unique to each individual.
In this example, Fig. A showcases a previous iteration of our design, featuring a straightforward home menu. If users wished to express their mood for the day, they would select the 'mood' option, which would then redirect them to a second screen displaying a variety of emoticons representing different moods.
Now, in Fig. B, we present a more recent iteration of our design. When a user selects 'mood,' the mood card instantly appears above, simplifying the process. We have also streamlined the options to just three choices. This enhancement serves a dual purpose: it reduces any user uncertainty and conveniently places all menu options within immediate reach on the same screen.
These refinements ensure a smoother user experience and more efficient navigation.
Phase 3: Expanding Horizons - A Holistic Health Companion
Driven by the needs and desires of our users, My Luna underwent a remarkable expansion. It transformed into a holistic health companion, allowing users to track a wide array of vital areas:
Meals: Monitoring dietary choices for better nutrition.
Moods: Tracking emotional well-being for improved mental health.
Exercise: Recording physical activities for a healthier lifestyle.
Symptoms: Cataloging various menopause-related symptoms.
Periods: Tracking menstrual cycles and changes.
Personal Notes: Providing a space for individual insights and reflections.

Phase 4: Building Community - Shared Experiences
Recognizing the power of shared experiences, My Luna integrated a built-in community feature. It fosters a sense of belonging and support, enabling users to connect, share stories, and find solace in knowing that they are not alone in their menopause journey.
Phase 5: Embracing Wearable Technology - Recording Hot Flashes in the Moment
In our continued commitment to enhancing user experience, My Luna is now available on smartwatches. This innovation enables users to record hot flashes in the moment, providing real-time data and insights that empower individuals to manage their menopause journey with precision.
The Result: Empowering Menopause with Insight and Community
Today, My Luna stands as a testament to the transformative power of user-centric design. It's no longer just an app; it's a lifeline for those navigating the complexities of menopause. With a wealth of tracking capabilities, personalized insights, and a thriving community, it empowers women to take control of their health and well-being during this life transition.
As we continue to evolve, our commitment to listening, learning, and growing alongside our users remains unwavering. My Luna is a tribute to the strength of women and the boundless potential of technology to transform lives positively.
