ABSTRACT
Background: According to the Global Nutrition Report 2018, there are 150.
8 million .
2%) children under five in the world are stunting, 55% from Asia.
Indonesia ranks 17th out of 117 countries, with a stunting prevalence of 6% in 2022.
Although, an innovation is still needed to solve the existing cases and prevent the new cases.
The innovation is "ASTU (Acupressure Stuntin.
: as the Digitization of Acupressure Education as an Effort to Prevent Stunting in Toddlers," which provides information about stunting and complementary therapy with acupressure Method: In this study using non-probability sampling with a variation of quota sampling requiring a sample of 25 respondents.
Identification of 25 respondentsAos level of knowledge about stunting and acupressure before and after using the ASTU Application was carried out by providing questions through Google Forms.
Result:
The results of obtaining pre-test scores from 25 respondents, the average is 46.
8, and after being given a pre-test, respondents were given an ASTU application to understand stunting and acupressure.
Then respondents given a posttest, and the average is 89.
The paired T-test shows that there is a significant difference between respondents' knowledge levels before and after using the application.
The mean value of 42,800 indicates that there is a trend of increasing knowledge.
The average is 4.
Conclusion: So, it can be concluded that the ASTU application is feasible received by the public to be used as one of the educational applications in increasing the appetite of toddlers to prevent stunting.

6% in 2022.

Malnutrition occurs when the body does not receive adequate nutrition due to a decrease in the toddler's If this is ignored, it will cause serious health problems because malnutrition is closely related to child development (Hidayati, et al.
So, it is very necessary to increase the appetite of toddlers by stimulating the toddler's hunger center point using acupressure Acupressure is a technique of strong stimulation of certain meridian points with the emphasis of the strength of the fingers.
Stimulation of the meridians will stimulate the outer and inner tissues of the body, where the occurrence of disease can be manifested from the meridian pathways associated with the organ system itself.
There is a need for media that provides information about the emphasis Gede Pio Aditya, et all : ASTU (Acupressure Stuntin.

This problem requires a fast and precise solution.
Application development is an alternative solution that can be used in overcoming stunting Applications are a form of adaptation to the digitalization era.
All the necessary information can be available on one platform and access to the information becomes easier.
Based on existing problems and research appetite of toddlers.
This application is designed with the aim of increasing appetite as an effort to prevent stunting in toddlers.
