### 4/5 — I like the poses but not the muscle structures

*2026-03-01*

I purchased the muscle system. Expensive to purchase all the features. I was disappointed that the muscles dont animate with the poses. they feel deflated and concave in places—Not at all realistic. It seems like more research is needed about how the body responds to moving. The skeleton is not very detailed. So I would not recommend this app for artists like myself.

### 5/5 — freedom in movement

*2025-07-07, version 2.0*

can we have freedom in movement rather than pose? i use this to also to insert in video editing and it is so cool but im limited with the pose. like my project is more on fitness and I cant make use of the poses that was included here.. i need somthing that can show movement from point a to point b.. and its much better if the muscle has animation that contracts whenever it is lengthen or shorten.. thanks great app devs

### 5/5 — Sooo good!

*2023-08-18, version 2.0*

It is so good and the new systems are awsome!

### 4/5 — Cool but where is female and male models?

*2023-04-15*

You really can add male and female models with more poses like heartbeat and muscle actions and lung rate and disease.

**Developer response:** Announcing Visible Anatomy 2.0 - Male and Female versions are now available, including 40 new poses.

### 3/5 — It’s missing muscles

*2019-03-04*

A little frustrating to find out there are muscles missing entirely from the muscular section I purchased. Also, 3D model doesn’t perform normal actions of simple flexion, extension, abduction etc. Your options are limited to 8 preset poses which are awkward poses to begin with, so you can’t isolate a particular muscle. Pay a little more and get a better App then this one

### 1/5 — Purchased Error

*2016-09-16, version 1.01*

Purchased the Full Version but it did not unlock the Nervous System. 9.99USD. I WANT MY MONEY BACK.

### 2/5 — Possibilities

*2015-08-26*

this app has the makings of a very comprehensive as an educational tool but it's limited. Especially as the upgrade doesn't seem to exist

**Developer response:** We just made available a major update to version 1.5.1 which includes the Muscular System. Rest assured we'll continue to make improvements to this app as it is gaining popularity.

### 5/5 — Visual Anatomy

*2015-03-25, version 1.01*

I expect this will have new features soon , it was exactly what I was looking for 3d poses in action, as an illustrator , I find  this app super useful , I would pay for add ons , like moving jaw and more poses . The model is stylish and most useful for drawing over the top of or drawing from . Thank you for designing it .
