Latest reviews of My Body - Anatomy for Kids app for iPhone and iPad
I thought that it would be an educational app for kids teaching them about the body but when you start calling the trachea "airways" calling the humerus "upper arm bone" and calling the ulna and radius together "lower arm bone" there really becomes no point. They could have learned as much doing the hokey pokey. Sad that I paid for this.
I am waiting for a refund on this app as I type this. This app is more for children 3-6 if you expect simple labels that should not be considered anatomy. The bone in the leg is not an "Upper Leg Bone", its a Femur. Also, the "Pelvis" is not the name of the bone, its the name of the region. Ilium, Sacrum, Pubis. I understand that not all parents will teach their child the actual names these bones but I think that if someone is downloading this app as a resource they may want to do just that. Maybe there could be difficulty settings which would allow the parent to control the detail? In short, promising app but not enough information to educate a child.
Cool app for kids, but is it multilingual? It says eng, far, esp, rus, etc. but can not find it in the settings, mine is only Deu?? Please revert.
Where the heck is other langs except dutch?
My sons cant play fully cuz of no eng and rus at all! Почему разработчики сразу не написали о том,что только немецкий язык!!! Хотя на изображениях анг!!! Пожалуйста примите меры!
