Daily Anatomy: Flashcard Quizzes to Learn Anatomy
Starting to learn anatomy can be overwhelming, but it shouldn't be. Daily Anatomy can be used without any prior knowledge. It starts with the basics and challenges your brain more and more over time. Learning with Daily Anatomy is not only about repetition. It introduces information in varying forms. Solving a problem in different ways helps you memorize information longer-term and finally be able to fully absorb it. Whether on your next exam or in your medical professional career, all the anatomy structures will be at hand. No more thinking. Just knowing.
What will you learn?
With Daily Anatomy you learn all the important structures of human anatomy. This includes bones, muscles, nerves, vessels and specific points on the bones. Each muscle is shown in both its neutral and functional positions so you implicitly learn the main functions as you go along.
Instead of many thin arrows pointing at various structures, each structure is clearly highlighted in its entirety. This way you can easily identify and memorize both shape and location.
How to stay motivated and not forget
Whether you need to learn lists of information, or for instance, every muscle and bone in the human body including how they function together, there is a method really works to help you out. The bonus is that this method doesn't stress you out either because you get to take lots of breaks.
It's called spaced repetition, and it's the way to go for knowledge that sticks in your cranium.
By using spaced repetition, you work through a series of increasing intervals of time between studying what you've previously learned. This method utilizes the psychological spacing effect, which occurs when you are going back over information that you have already learned in order to remember it better. Spaced repetition works well for lists of items or new vocabularies such as medical terminology.
Daily Anatomy has built-in spaced repetition, so you learn as efficiently and effectively as you can.

This is a really great app that has helped alot but I think not being able to use it for x amount of time to improve your memory is very restrictive & frustrating. For example on my current memory break I can't answer any questions for 33 days which is beyond frustrating. I want to be on it everyday & repetitively be answering as many as possible before my exam. Apart from the every about the app is brilliant. If they took that feature off it it would be amazing.
Decent app for those looking to learn anatomy as a beginner. But lacks enough in-depth information, and there should be an option to set the difficulty level, or an option to choose the cards that I already know so I don't have to waste time progressing. Overall, it's good if you're new to anatomy, but if you're a medical student like me it doesn't have much to offer.
I LOVE this app! It has helped me so much in reviewing for my anatomy and physiology class. However, I wish that it had more packages to add on! Especially the skull! Also, it would be nice if it had add-on packages that had the parts of Bones, instead of just the main bones. I would pay for add-ons like that! And if there was also a package where you could have additional angles pictures of the different bones, and even pictures of real ones. I would pay for an app like that! But I love the setup of this one! Also, it lists the Os Coxae as the hip bone. I think it would be better for it to use the more scientific terms. So there's some room for improvement, but I love it. Thank you!
Okay for the basics, but may be confusing. For instance, the app utilizes word/picture association and repetitive cognitive re-association to help the user learn the basic terms of human anatomy. What it doesn't do is provide a basic definition or explanation of the word, which becomes increasingly important as you broaden your anatomical and psychological vocabularies. The example which most readily comes to mind is the early introduction of the terms Anterior and Ventral. Both use very similar drawings to depict them; however, there is no definition offered so that a new learner can identify the difference. Make the addition of a brief term description to the first introduction of a new term and, perhaps, if someone were to get the term wrong in the "quizzing", and it becomes much more valuable as both a teaching aid and as a personal development tool.
Its a great app for beginners. It is repetitive, and while good for learning, with the limited terms it can get tedius. I will continue to use it to solidify terminology and hope that new additions are added over time. Update: stick to it and over time new terms do come up (daily!). Advanced learning is required for real world application, but helps you learn where everything is on the body!
For other reviewers you can skip the waits just read the text on screen! Click 'skip waiting' I only wish there were more parts available! It is so great for learning! I selected to start with all 140 words, I have no Idea why you have to manually change it to this. Also audio of the words playing after each correct answer would help.
My first thought for using a Latin word as etymology to describing anatomy was "how is my brain supposed remember this now?!" Don't know how? But it stuck! That and repetition. The video slots break up the questions. Variety = interesting + fun. A creative way of learning that works for me. And I thought I had the memory of a Goldfish. Conventional textbook, flashcards etc is an underwhelming process. Love this app!!!👍👍👊
It was fun to memorize with flashcards. And much easier to visualize the answer because of color scheme. This app is one of the many Anatomy apps I have on my phone but what I think sets it apart is the fact that the setup is game-like and builds a sense of accomplishment with every 'correct!' after an answer.
Simple and effective for revision, but a bit fast to learn from and the wait times can be excruciating. Would be good to see some sort of reference so that users can browse the material. Also it's not entirely clear at first which packs are on and off - small interface tweaks would help
I don't really understand how it works. I can't select the packages separately and the rating system is a mystery. It goes a bit fast for me, if it's your first time anatomy learning don't start with this app. The pictures look nice. Despite all this I learned a lot of new muscles and bones in this first week.
Needs improvement. It's a good App but there's no setting for difficulty or moving to the next term. I don't learn this slow and you aren't accommodating to fast learners. Also the fade in of options is too slow. Too wasteful of users time. Great concept; works too. Simply needs improvement.
Great until it crashes, i loaded up the extra packages and got up to well over 100 terms, then tried turning off some packages to focus on a specific area aaaaaand the whole app crashed hard and required uninstalling, now i have to grind through those terms again, which for some reason is taking just as long as when i was struggling with the basics; went from practical to useless real quick.
Hated it. The concept is good but execution is terrible. They need to learn from some language apps how to do spaced repetition programs. Can't skip anything and moves at a snail's pace with a million interruptions. Had me "learning" the same 3 words for what seemed like 5 minutes at one point until I finally decided to uninstall the app.
its really good. i just wished it had more package options. so that i can study the entire human body instead of just the limbs and the basic directional terms and planes. i would like to learn the entire human anatomy if possible. it's a good app though.
Seems good so far. Having fun work my way through the flash cards. Definitely something I wish I had the first time I studied anatomy. There doesn't seem to be an actual daily component just keeps going through the flash cards with occasional 30 second breaks.
This is flash cards, and lots of them. You have to pay to open up more. I have other apps on phone to study for the MBLEX and I do not use this one often. But has a value. Not best for me but may be good for thee..
Great, simple app suitable for even a rank beginner. The only thing i think that would make it better is if there were a daily goal or something you could set up, either number of flashcards or time spent studying.
It's very useful, the spaced repitition is great and it's nice to be able to decide when you want to add in each new set of cards. I wish there were more fact packages though - this app seems to have plenty of room for expansion
It's a very personalised app that encourages me to try to recall the names of the various body parts. I think the developers have designed the app very well in that aspect and something that could be make it even better is if there is a option for us to hear how the anatomical term is pronounced
It's a great app except when the next time you can do a quiz is 10 hours later. Like I literally answered one question and it's like great you got it right and you can answer another one 10 hours later. That isn't fab, I know it does it for memory purposes but it's more helpful when I can do a lot in one go
I do enjoy this app. But it is annoying how slowly it adds new questions to the mix. A lot of repeat questions but then again repetition is a great way to memorize things. May be good for those in biology or anatomy classes.
This app really helps learn most of the muscles as it forces you to remember them in a very short period of time! Only downside is, is that it only includes muscles of the limbs and not the torso or back. But still an amazing app to remember them!
The best app for teaching anatomy. And it's free! 😀 I always use it on the bus to and from uni. It's actually more fun and rewarding to use than many of my games. I also highly recommend getting the full version on pc at KenHub. Com they have awesome video and even more tests!
I've just gotten it. I haven't had any real ads yet. It works really well and I've learned about 15 new terms in a short amount of time. Super easy to use and it looks pretty nice too. They have a cram mode if you are studying for an exam, but I think it's better to wait, because they "stretch your memory". Liking it so far
I think this app is amazing. I've made A's in lecture so far. it's hard to study since I have a child, full classes, and a job. it's easy to just pull this out when I get spare time instead of bringing my book with me. I do wish they had more packages, though.
It's a good app but it makes you wait too long in between using it and it goes over the same material again and again for days. If those issues were fixed this app would be indespensable for learning and memorization, however, in its current form this app is almost borderline useless.
Great app, but the time to answer a question is way too short. Especially because after every few questions you get a new muscle or bone to remember. I guess it's a great way to rehearse what you already know, but not great to freshly learn.
Awesome app for learning muscular and skeletal anatomy of the appendages. One feature that would greatly help my understanding is a note on the images depicting whether they are anterior or posterior position. Some of them are hard to tell and it can make visualizing the positions challenging and confusing at times.
