Frequently Asked Questions
Do both partners need the app?
Yes, both partners need to download Lumo for guided conversations together. However, you can use Lumo solo for personal reflection while waiting for your partner to join.
How much does Lumo cost?
Lumo is free to start with a 7-day trial. After that, it's $9.99/month for both partners (or $39.99/year). No credit card required for the trial.
Is Lumo a replacement for therapy?
No. Lumo is a communication tool, not therapy. It's great for everyday relationship maintenance and improving communication. For serious issues or mental health concerns, please seek professional therapy.
How long does a conversation take?
Most conversations take 5-10 minutes. You can pause and resume anytime. Lumo is designed to fit into your daily routine, not disrupt it.
What if my partner doesn't want to use it?
Start solo! Use Lumo for personal reflection and to understand your own communication patterns. Many partners join later when they see the positive changes.
