Great learning tool!

My 8 and 4 year old love this app. They love learning about the different parts of the body and how they work. Several times a day my 4 Year old will find occasion to view one vignette or another, like when she bites her tongue or her stomach hurts. Cons: the price of the animation packs is a little high. Also, the audio and the animation go by too fast for full comprehension. Recommend slowing down the animation speed, and having the reader pause for two to three seconds between sentences to let the listener process what they just heard.

Pretty nice animations, but hugely expensive.

This collection of physiology animations is nice (=artistically nice and pretty, and the information is well presented if you are a very visual learner), but the basic "engine" of the set only has a few samples to watch (very short videos, albeit clear), and the extra tiny videos add up fast. Since the body works as a whole, it is hard to understand the heart without ponying up the money for the respiratory system, etc.
Maybe get the basic engine, and an "animation pack" of major interest to you.

Seriously

Are they serious with this? No voice or notes on the videos? Total hack, ripoff, joke. And to have to pay for each video that provides no information or terminology as to what is going on. These people should be taken to court

Developer Response ,

I'm sorry to hear of the audio issues you're experiencing (there should indeed be voiceovers)! Please email us at support@visiblebody.com so we can help troubleshoot.
