Doesn’t work on dark mode in ios13

The text doesn’t appear when using dark mode in iOS 13, but is otherwise a great app.

Response from developer

Hi there Paul, thanks for letting us know. This is being fixed and will be available early next week. (in the meantime, if you switch your Theme from Dark to Light in Settings/Display & Brightness, this will resolve this issue.) Best Wishes, Mark & Team

Doesn’t download!

Can’t use and review app if it won’t download.
Update: have it now. I don’t know what the issue was. I have LOTS of storage.

Missing a few features

Should be able to have arrow keys to go from one pin to another - not just having to manually spin and click on each pin

Hi there, thanks so much for this feedback. I'll let the product team know straight away. Thanks, Mark

Really helpful tool

Visuals are great. Clean and intuitive interface. Well organized. Useful info for each part. The MULTIPLE testing tools are incredibly helpful for studying. Thank you so much guys.

Just one bug: when tapping on the speaker for dialogue in the info section, the app crashes. iPhone SE iOS 13.1.2

Also, would you please add the ability to skip questions in the testing mode? Would really help speed things along for ones I am sure I know already or am not currently studying.

Thank you guys so much!

Hey Taylor, good news - we have just fixed this audio pronunciation feature and an update is arriving in the next few hours. Thanks so much for your kind words of support and for pointing this out to us. Best wishes, Mark & all the Team at Pocket Anatomy

Please change the app icon

The app icon looks like it has a wiener & a bum. Why such a bad icon for such a good app?

Hi there, many thanks for your suggestion. I will let our product team know straight away. Thank you! Best wishes, Pocket Anatomy team.

Fantastic app for patient display

I have been a head and neck surgeon for 30+ years and this is the perfect addition to demonstrate structures yo patients and interns.
The app with its testing process (unexpected addition) is fantastic and well worth the few coin it costs.

Response from developer

Hi there, many thanks for your kind words. Pocket Anatomy has been a labor of love for us for the past 10 years, so it's great to know that this is of value to you as a healthcare professional. Thank you! Best wishes, Pocket Anatomy team.

Need tools to isolate

I think this would be a much better tool if there were a way to highlight a single muscle and see the whole muscle.

Hi there, many thanks for your suggestion. I will let our product team know straight away. Thank you! Best wishes, Pocket Anatomy team.

Not user friendly

I’m trying to use this app as a novice, a yoga student interested in learning more about the muscles we are working in class. This app has no common language use. Curious about the IT band? This app has no clue what you are referring to. There is no back button. You touch it and it’s suddenly in a whole new muscle, or maybe it’s switched to nerves. Gotta start over. Also, so many pins. Which is the one you want? I have learned nothing but how to control my aggravation thru more yoga.

Hi there, many thanks for your suggestion of a common language use. I will let our product team know straight away. And the back button is also a great feature request. Thank you! Best wishes, Pocket Anatomy team.

Poor Interaction / Poor Visuals

This only gives the user an exterior view. I could find better examples “googling” or on YouTube. Would like my $1 back. Very unpleased.

Suggestions

I do like the app for its basic functions. I think I would suggest that the app makes it easier to cut away muscles to see all of the underlying musculature. I would also point out the bony landmarks on the skeleton to better visualize the origin and insertion points.

Response from developer

Hi there, many thanks for your review and for your thoughtful feature requests. I will pass these on to our product team straight away. If you have any other specific feature requests, please get in touch with us directly, as we pride ourselves on customer support. Best wishes, Pocket Anatomy team.
