Leave a Review Muscle & Bone Anatomy 3D
Disappointed in tutorials and quiz
I was so excited with this app initially and it does have its good points but there are downsides. I got the app to study for my massage boards. The tutorials are misleading as they state certain muscles cause movements to bones even when the muscle is not attached to that bone. For college level, this does not work for studying. The latissamis dorsi DOES NOT depress the scapula. Just because the scapula moves when adducting the arm does not mean it moves this bone. Secondly in the quiz section it would be nice if they tried to make it hard on some of the questions. For example, when you show me a muscle on the leg and one of the options is about movement of the leg but the other three options are in relation to movement of the hip it is a no brainier and therefor is not challenging at all. I want to have to think about it, not choose the ONLY answer that makes sense for the location.Show lessHPKB
Ok for basic patient education.. Watch for mistakes...
I am physical therapist assistant and I just bought this app today because of the great 3D graphics. Nice clear views for patient education on basic muscles and over view of the skeletal system.. except the foot. Within10 minutes, I noticed a huge mistake in the hip movement section. It is mentioned that for hip internal and external rotation and hip adduction and abduction that the HUMERUS is the long bone in the leg instead of the FEMUR...so if you are using this as a study tool...Beware of mistakes....Please fix this and I would give it more stars....
THANKS for fixing all the mistakes. Now you deserve 5 stars!!!!!!Show lessiamRMB
Great for anatomy students!!!
I'm taking anatomy right now and this has been a huge help in getting familiar with the muscles of the body.
Pros: Very thorough and very accurate as compared to my lab book (~95%). Quiz feature is awesome. I just wish there were a feature in quizzes that was fill in the blank like on a lab practical.
Cons: Nothing major. Missing a couple muscles as compared to my book: internal/external intercostals and flexor digitorum superficialis. Origins and insertions don't agree with my book 100%. It would be nice if you could zoom in on the 3D model instead of having separate close-up images. Probably harder to do though. A more customizable quiz section would be better too.
Overall: This was more worth the money than my text book. I still need my text book but this is a really good supplement.

Love it!!
Its a great app! Doesnt have all the muscles i need and a few more than i need but great studying tool. Only have a few wishes. I wish you could "zoom in" on the full body more. And i would love to be able to rotate the parts that are zoomed in to get better/different views. When taken the create your own quizes, it would be nice to have similar parts instead of a neck, arm, leg, and stomach muscle. The only real issue I've had is the quiz and sometimes just turning the body causes the program to freeze.

Love this app - couple suggestions for updates
This app is very pleasant to use. It's quite informative and appealing. Its a good buy for the money. The images are completely 360 in view, and all muscles and bones seem to be covered in lots of detail, but viewable together or separate - which is nice when you are trying to learn the musculoskeletal systems! Just two suggestions. I would add a layer with the tendons and ligaments to make the learning complete. Also, I would work on the spin effect - sometimes it keeps turning after you remove your finger from the screen instead of locking in place.
I look forward to all future updates! A great learning tool!

Over-rated App.
I want to start out this review by stating that in theory, this app would be fantastic; in reality however, some egregious flaws diminish the overall value of the app. The muscle cards provide clear descriptions of the action, origin, insertion, and innervation of each of the muscles presented. With that being said, many muscles are omitted from the app, mostly in the foot it seems. Overall, for $7, this app is well worth the money; just bear in mind that some things are not included. As an aspiring physical therapist, this app will be more useful in the future (to show patients their specific pathophysiology), but in studying the muscles now, I may be limited by content of the app. This app has the potential to be fantastic, with a few upgrades to include some of the omitted muscles.Show lessPT student.
Great app quizzes need work
This app is awesome and has a lot of useful bone and muscle information, there's not much they can change or add to the information to make it any better. The two issues I have are with the quiz sections.
1- they do not have the nerve innervations which would be very helpful as one of the quizzes. They do however have action, origin and insertion quizzes. Which brings me to point 2
2- the quizzes could be setup better. When I am taking a quiz on the arm muscles and it shows me an arm muscles to identify and 3/4 of the multiple choice answers are leg muscles it doesn't encourage a learning environment. They need to keep possible answers on the quizzes regional to the part of the body of the quiz you are taking.Show lessBsl231
Buy it! It's what you're looking for.
This app is incredible. I have purchased all of the Real Bodywork apps because I was so impressed. This app has all the basic information you need to know about muscles, actions, insertions, origins, related nerves, etc. The contents of this app would take a textbook hundreds of pages to describe. There are many videos and 3D visuals that you have complete control over. Apps like this one are the beginning of electronic teaching and learning. You won't be disappointed with this app. I would recommend it to anyone studying or going into the medical field. I really hope Real Bodywork will come out with a tissues and integumentary app!Show lessReviewsbyott
Quizzes are a JOKE.. But overall not a bad app.
I am a doctor of physical therapy student, and looking for an app that could quiz me to keep me fresh. This app has nice graphics, and I like the way that it shows this different muscle groups involved in each movement, But the quizzes could not be more easy. For example they will show the temporalis, and some of the options for action will be extend the pinky or internally rotate the hip.. Come on...
Please make the quizzes more difficult, and then this would be a five star app!!!! Or at least have a variable difficulty in the quizzes, cause this app has so much potential!!!Show lessjohnnnnnyboooyyyyyyyyyy
Great Source of Information
I use this app and its siblings to be able to better communicate with my personal trainer. She is a former World champion and World record holder in power lifting, has her masters in exercise science and sports medicine, is a certified athletic trainer and an associate college professor teaching nutrition. In other words, she is a voluminous resource of knowledge and experience. This app allows me to better communicate with her, and to better understand and internalize what she is giving me. The presentation, information and graphics are outstanding.Show lessBrianM8614
