### 3/5 — Uhh it's okay

*2015-05-18, version 1.4*

The app would've been better if the illustrations were organized by body systems as well. Currently, images are divided by categories like embryology, lymphatic system, arteries, veins, myology, syndesmology, osteology, etc. There are some chapters (like the chapters on veins and arteries) that only have text and no illustrations. On the up side, you can create your own notes and bookmark images.

### 3/5 — Gray's Anatomy

*2015-02-01, version 1.4*

I was somewhat disappointed with the application.  I did not find the amount of information to be adequate.  Gray's Anatomy is world reknowned and I found the book itself to be quite detailed.  However, this application has limited amount of information and may not be adequate for a medical student.  Average at best.

### 2/5 — It's a bit embarrassing but not completely awful

*2014-01-04, version 1.3*

The navigation is rather questionable. Search doesn't work until you figure out that tapping return doesn't do anything but you need to tap the custom search button. 

Text is presented without the expense of thought. You have to copy it into a writing app to read it. 

Don't be fooled by the promise of 3D models. While they are there, they're not overly useful. The models are rough and simple front projection is used to texture them. Very crude and inaccurate. 

But for $2.99 it's OK just to show something without having to go to a quality model. 

A few images are there but the entire rest is text over an error message. 

The developer doesn't seem to be bothered by this, given how long the app has been out.

### 2/5 — Confusing

*2013-10-14, version 1.3*

It is difficult to see the name of parts. Few usage of the possibilities of iPad. Boring application.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2013-08-22, version 1.3*

Perfect

### 1/5 — Don't bother

*2013-02-25, version 1.3*

I am beyond disappointed with this app. The main reason I purchased it was to refer to the muscular system as a whole. That isn't possible with this app.

### 1/5 — Should be free

*2013-02-16, version 1.3*

Poor content and poor pictures. Gets one star because I can't give it zero.....I would like a refund too !?

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2013-01-24, version 1.3*

Not worth it, can I please have a refund?

### 2/5 — Just Okay

*2013-01-07, version 1.3*

Not what I was expecting especially when using the Gray name. The app runs well and the connection to Wiki is handy but in general it looks like someone just took an old book and digitised it.

### 2/5 — Not a good reference for medical students

*2012-11-27, version 1.3*

The info in this app is too incomplete and there are too few pictures to be a good reference or focused refresher for medical professionals. And it is very slow as well as very big. But it is cheap. Regardless, it was a waste of a few dollars since I find it pretty unusable for my purposes.

### 1/5 — Awful application

*2012-11-11, version 1.3*

Real waste of money. The app is nothing but screenshots of the pictures from the book/website, most with no labels and all with no description. I can't understand what this app is useful for? No good for surgeons, useless for students.... Needs a serious update with a lot of work!

### 2/5 — Needs Improvement

*2012-11-11, version 1.3*

A few points on the app...the 3D section needs work...the current diagrams may have passed for 3D in the 1800's but not today. Also, a search for 'neck muscles' comes up 'no items' found...the search functionality should be improved (at least for lay people such as myself) and the navigation could be a bit better...

### 1/5 — Poor database integration

*2012-11-04, version 1.3*

If you want to find something, I.e. a structure, artery, or vein and you type that into the search engine, good luck. Their database is poorly populated for searching and chances are what's labeled on a slide is not cross-referenced with the search engine. 

The 3D feature is also VERY weak. 

You're better off even with some of the free apps out there.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Ancient text

*2018-08-22, version 1.5*

The drawings and diagrams are from some ancient edition of Gray’s.  It can only be viewed in landscape format. The descriptions are very superficial and do not go into any depth.

### 1/5 — Very out-dated material, even though it is the "anatomy", after all...

*2017-01-19, version 1.4*

Very out-dated material, even though it is the "anatomy", after all...  The application needs to be updated to go with today's technology.

### 1/5 — Oh my god

*2015-08-29, version 1.4*

This is the worst thing that i have purchaed on the AppStore....i feel like such an idiot buying this cheat

### 1/5 — Don't buy

*2015-03-21, version 1.4*

Not organized. There are some muscle images, but no way to search and lots of " no images available". Won't be using it.

### 1/5 — Ira Denton

*2014-09-22, version 1.3*

The"data set" window refuses to close and thus overlies and masks the menu and other windows, rendering the app useless.  I've tried canceling and reloading the app for my iPad mini, but problem remains.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2014-06-01, version 1.3*

Missing images, slow response, many crashes. A mere waste of money and pure dissatisfaction.

### 1/5 — No!

*2013-12-31, version 1.3*

Don't buy. Looks like the book I had in 1966.  But not as good.

### 1/5 — Very poor App

*2013-08-04, version 1.3*

I was hoping to have a quick source of information to refresh my memory from, and this App is not it. It is amazingly poorly laid out and tiring to find the information you want. I feel like I'm fighting the App every time I use it in order to get the info I want, to the point that I will likely just delete the App.

### 1/5 — I wish I would have read the reviews

*2013-06-28, version 1.3*

Don't waste your money on this app. There are other apps out there are much better than this.

### 1/5 — Horrible,  Grade F

*2013-05-03, version 1.3*

I am a physician and yes, I have Grant's, Grey's and Clemente anatomy book.  The anatomy in this app is so substandard for anyone with basic medical knowledge that is insulting to even market and sell.  You have a look of work to do with this app.
I have to give you a least one star but this app should even get that!

### 5/5 — Gray’s Anatomy

*2018-05-20, version 1.5*

Despite no mention of Dr Henry V. Carter - the great anatomical illustrator who worked with Dr Henry Gray to create the seminal book on anatomy, this is a great digital resource to back up the indispensable book. 

I still think this app would not make as much sense without a conjoined reading of the actual book!

### 5/5 — Great resource

*2013-09-12, version 1.3*

I am an NP student and this is an awesome resource! I wish I had found it sooner.

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2013-06-30, version 1.3*

Great app, zoomable pics and tons of text, great search function. Also has bookmarks that display in the side bar as thumbnails that you can scroll thru quickly to find the pic you need. Very nice job of making a solid UI for this classic text, and affordably!

### 5/5 — KM

*2013-03-23, version 1.3*

Excellent app some of text can be removed to make it concise without omitting important bits.

### 5/5 — Awesome app!

*2013-03-20, version 1.3*

I find this app very helpful in my Osteopathy studies. It's very detailed and the pictures are of great quality. I don't think some of the previous reviewers could have navigated the app very well, it's a great app for a small price!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2012-12-22, version 1.3*

Lots of great resources. Great for teaching small nursing classes!

### 5/5 — Great

*2012-12-19, version 1.3*

I got the back, this makes it soo much easier. Would like to see a full 3d model of the muscles would be nice though

### 5/5 — Amazing Anatomy!

*2012-07-21, version 1.3*

Ideal for Doctors, especially Surgeons like myself.

### 5/5 — Very good

*2012-03-17, version 1.3*

Never had the free version and just decided to buy this and I am glad it paid off. No crashes or slow down, very detailed and easy to read.  (iPad 2)
Cons: Very hard to navigate around, thumbnail and full index would be appreciated.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2012-03-15, version 1.3*

This app works great on my iPad 2. I am a Nurse in the Army (68WM6) 102nd FST 💀💀OIF 07-09 VET💀💀 It's a great resource to have on hand.
