We are the TEENHEALTHNOW team.
The TEENHEALTHNOW team focuses on helping teenagers improve their physical condition. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, they perceived that teenagers were forced to stay indoors, leading to minimal physical activity. The TEENHEALTHNOW team became ambitious to help teenagers become more healthy, therefore, creating the TEENHEALTHNOW app.
