### 4/5 — My go to app for acupoints

*2026-02-28, version 4.0*

I really liked how I can easily see the big picture of all acupuncture point locations. Clicking an acupuncture point allows me to review detailed information about the acupuncture point (e.g. functions, indications, location, needling, etc). I also appreciated the ability to easily set up which Primary or Extraordinary meridians as well as anatomical system (e.g. skeletal, muscular, digestive, etc) to include. The Search function by meridian, keyword, groups, or combinations is a gem. The Acupuncture Quiz is quite engaging. The only downside is that the legs are too close together and makes it harder to review and click through the medial lower leg acupuncture points.

### 4/5 — Great tool

*2025-09-06, version 4.0*

Great to be able to fit this excellent tool on your phone

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2025-08-04, version 4.0*

LOVE this app, works great and mostly easy to use. The only request I would have for a future version would be bendable joints/movable limbs especially the knee- with the legs just being straight and near each other it’s hard to access the medial leg for point location differentiation. Thank you!

### 2/5 — Great app

*2025-03-25, version 4.0*

I am using it regularly for my work. Thanks

### 3/5 — Great but lacking something

*2024-04-10, version 3.11*

I used this app a lot and it helped me memorize the name and numbers of the points. I dont regret my purchase at all. However there is some little things that could be easily added, like :
-the english translation of the points ! So good to know … 
-their pin yin (less important for most but still easy to add) 
-their locations !

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-10-21*

The best one for acupuncture. Practical, accurate and easy going!

### 4/5 — Amazingly in depth, but needs a woman body.

*2023-10-10*

I have learned more from this app, than my actual classes in school. However, it only shows the channels as they would look on the biology of a man. It needs to have the option to switch between and male and female body.

### 5/5 — Well thought out

*2023-08-25, version 3.11*

Very useful, excellent interface, has helped me to self heal. Educational, and I'm so grateful to have this resource when away from practitioner. A thousand Thankyous to the authors!!!

### 4/5 — Hi

*2023-08-05, version 3.11*

Hi

### 5/5 — Best for Meridian Learning

*2023-04-18, version 3.11*

I have been using this App for 4 years, and always helps me see the meridians better.

### 4/5 — This is my favorite go-to app for acupoints

*2023-02-03, version 3.11*

Liked how I can easily configure the visibility of Primary and Extraordinary Channels, including related Anatomy (e.g. skin, skeletal system, muscular system, etc). Make annotation using the Draw tool or adding My Notes to specific acupoints, search by Keywords or Meridian, and also take Quizzes.

I rate a 4 because the legs and foot are closer together, which makes it a bit difficult to click and review the acupoints in the medial lower leg and in the medial foot area. Hope the legs and foot will positioned wider apart.

### 4/5 — Circulatory System Needs Improvement

*2022-11-21, version 3.11*

This is a great app but it is seriously lacking when it comes to the anatomy of the veins and arteries. The majority of cautions and contraindications in acupuncture include avoiding major arteries. Without being able to see the arteries in relation to the acupuncture point, it does not provide the necessary education for acupuncturists. I specifically purchased this app in order to see the major arteries. If the developer can update the app with a more detailed visual of the circulatory system, it would significantly improve the overall value. Once the anatomy is updated and detailed (like the app Complete Anatomy) I would love to give this one 5/5 stars.

### 5/5 — Acupuncture student

*2022-10-18, version 3.11*

I refer to the app frequently when making point prescriptions and to study points and meridians. It works great for me and it was cheaper than most used books on the topic.

### 5/5 — 3D accupuncture

*2022-10-11, version 3.11*

I find this app to be very good in helping me work with the meridians and point location. It has improved my knowledge of point identification and location immensely.

### 2/5 — Displayed text cannot be selected to translate

*2022-09-02, version 3.11*

As English is not my first language I need to use the built in functions of iOS that allow me to select a word then translate it or search the web for a translation. This is not possible in this app

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Paid but don’t have access

*2026-04-07, version 4.0*

I renewed my annual subscription, but can’t use the app. I’ve contacted the company numerous times no response. Be warned.

### 1/5 — I purchased lifetime full version but now it says I have to purchase again!

*2026-03-14, version 4.0*

I purchased the full lifetime version when it was offered but when I go to restore the purchase, only some of the functionality unlocks. Please fix this!!

### 1/5 — ?

*2024-05-28, version 3.11*

Why did this become so expensive

### 1/5 — No nervous system and no support

*2022-09-01, version 3.11*

The nervous system that whether I toggle on or off it’s not there and I sent an email to support that won’t go through.  I just bought the lifetime subscription too, what a waste

### 1/5 — Not honest

*2022-08-07, version 3.11*

Would have been nice if the app informed people that it is useless unless one buys their service. Absolutely useless app unless you pay them constantly.

### 1/5 — Enttäuschend

*2021-06-04*

Anatomische 3D-Modelle gibt es mittlerweile eine ganze Reihe, auch wissenschaftlich sehr gut fundierte. Hatte mich gefreut, hier eines zu finden, das die Leitbahnen der TCM darstellt. Das beschränkt sich aber leider nur auf die äußeren Meridianverläufe - obwohl durch die Möglichkeit, Haut, Muskulatur, Organe etc. auszublenden, leicht auch die inneren Zweige darstellbar gewesen wären. Auch fehlen Maßangaben (cun) im Modell. Zu einem vergleichbaren Preis ist das in anderen Apps wie „The Meridian“ von Kim June-Hyun mit wesentlich höherer Präzision. Habe das Monats-Abo gleich wieder gekündigt.

### 1/5 — Everything is locked untill you pay

*2020-12-21, version 3.11*

Be honest and put $19 price tag on your app.

### 1/5 — Pontos

*2020-08-04*

Não tem todos os pontos

### 1/5 — If you switch between iPhone & Android, they make you purchase the app AGAIN! terrible support

*2020-03-04, version 3.11*

I originally purchased the app on Android and cannot access the features on my new phone, an iPhone.

I reached out to the developer about recovering my account. They responded a few days later saying I need to purchase the app’s features again.

This is terrible support for a okay app that is super expensive - $40!

It’s not worth a repurchase so I’m out!!

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2019-01-01*

Nervous System and Circulatory System containing just heard and brain. .yeah, I knew this before. 
Lukily I just spent mony just for one month.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Invaluable tool

*2026-08-18, version 4.0*

Love this app it's just brilliant and very comprehensive

### 5/5 — Good quick reference

*2026-02-26, version 4.0*

I practice NMT and use points for additional reference which is helpful when trying to find a previous TP

### 5/5 — Super complete!

*2025-10-22, version 4.0*

It's a complete app! You can find everything you need to know about meridians and acupoints. I love it!

### 5/5 — Indispensable tool for Acupuncture Practitioners

*2025-08-23, version 4.0*

This application is just exceptional!! The detail on graphics and the associated information including anatomy is amazing. I would say it is a must-have reference source for everyday practice and mastering of this ancient, effective, efficient medical art of acupuncture!! I fully recommend it.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-08-20, version 4.0*

The app is very easy to use and I'm always using it for a quick anatomy reference.

### 5/5 — Excellent learning tool

*2025-05-13, version 4.0*

I’ve been using this for 4years while in acupuncture school. It’s been a great way to reinforce and visualize what I’ve been learning in a 3D model.

### 5/5 — Excellent app!

*2025-05-06, version 4.0*

Easy to use, complete, efficient and very clear. I highly recommend it

### 5/5 — I use this daily as an acupuncturist

*2025-02-20, version 4.0*

This app is amazing, great quick reference tool that I use every day in the clinic as an acupuncturist. As an orthopedic acupuncture TA, I recommended this app to all of my students since it lays out the acu points so well over muscle groups. I wish it had more muscles listed and displayed, but it’s great for what it is! Can’t recommend this download enough if you are an acupuncturist, especially as specific point locations for points we don’t use often get harder for us to remember.

### 5/5 — The best studying app

*2024-05-07, version 3.11*

This is an all in one point location and energetics app. Very thorough and easy to use !

### 5/5 — Really helpful & informative!

*2023-11-12, version 3.11*

Love this app- as an early/beginning acupuncture & acupressure student, I find their app incredible helpful for quick references & understanding/visualizing point placement. Thank you to the app creators & developers, keep up the good work!
