Pros and cons of Speed Muscles MD app for iPhone and iPad

Speed Muscles MD app good for

Fantastic, interactive way to study. My only wish is for larger pictures of the forearm, foot, and leg when being asked to identify the intricate muscles that control th hand and foot.
Both the bones and the muscles are exellent reviews. Im in medical school right now and am going to take boards next year and this is just what I needed to stay sharp on the basics. Im looking forward to other systems. Please hurry
This app, along with its companion, have been for helpful to me than I can articulate. Speaking as someone who is not even a doctor or other health care professional, this is the best couple of bucks youll ever spend.
I would like to see more detail in the future when it comes to the leg muscles. Instead of grouping the hamstrings together they should be listed seperate, bicep femoris, etc and the same for quads, rectus femoris and so on. When are you going to add muscles that arent in this version?? Also the option to browse muscles at our own pace would be nice. All in all, both speed muscles and bones are great apps!!
I am studying to get my personal trainer certification. Origin/Insertion/Action qwizzing would be awesome. This is a great start!
I am in medical massage school and speed bones and speed muscles are a great way to study while on the go. Anytime i have a few min i pick a section to review. They are really helping me in my anatomy and physiology class. Thanks!

Some bad moments

I bought this app and also downloaded the anatomy free version. Unfortunately both are not working, they do not seem to sync on my ipod. please fix it so I can enjoy the game as much as I do for speed bones!!
This app leaves a lot to be desired. I tried their anatomy lite version and thought it was fun so I paid for this one thinking that since it costs money itd be an upgrade. Bad choice. It is no more advanced. You can not pick what part of the body youd like to be tested over and the resolution of the illustrations is terrible. I purchased a different muscle quiz app 10 minutes later for the same price that offers detailed illustrations a quiz maker, video, control over what part of the body youre studying, and a lot more and Im on my way to acing my test. This app is a total disappointment and should be free. Do not buy this app.
Should be free...it is so basic & unprecise its useless...even the game mode of this fails to operate effectively, the game indicates if player scores 50% or higher you progress but this is not true i cosistently score over 30 of 50 on the first three tests but it DOES NOT progress... Its funny because i bought the app to learn what i do not know yet its "rules" dictate i must know before i can even learn????!!!!??? If only app designer had enough sense to grasp this very basic concept!
