Apu (Finnish for 'help') is a Finnish family magazine published in Helsinki, Finland. The magazine is known for its columns, an anecdote column called "Nitrodisko", its crosswords, and the weekly "Missä Jallu luuraa?" (Where is Jallu hiding?).

It was founded during a recession to help the unemployed persons, who were its exclusive resellers, hence its name meaning "help" in Finnish.
