About Bones of the body
About Bones of the body
Bones of the body is designed to rapidly teach you the name of all the bones in the body.
At the start only three bones are quizzed, but more are added as long as you submit correct answers. This way the difficulty gradually increases based on your performance.
Quizzing has two modes; Tap to learn and Spin to learn.
In Tap to learn the name of a bone is displayed and you're supposed to tap the correct bone. Double tap to submit the reply.
In Spin to learn an image with a highlighted bone is presented. You're supposed to select the correct name from a list of bones below the image. The list always contains the correct answer as well as bones with similar names. For example, if the bone trapezium is displayed the list always contains trapezoid as well. This makes sure that you learn to distinguish between bones that are easy to mix up.
Both quiz modes are designed to be pedagogical. For example, if you make a mistake the correct answer is displayed and you're given another attempt. Incorrect replies also cause those bones to be more likely to appear again, thus focusing you're study effort where it is most needed.
Names that are used in an everyday setting (for example knee cap) and medical settings (for example patella) are included, and clearly distinguished between. In addition to English the names in Latin are included. To ensure correct terminology the names are verified using several anatomical textbooks and the Terminologia Anatomica.
An atlas is also provided in case you want to look up the name of a particular bone.

Simple but effective
Oct 5, 2018 This is definitely time consuming given you generally go through clicking the same few bones before gaining a new one but it’s a great way to start learning the names. The pictures do a great job of breaking the bone up surprisingly. They aren’t super fancy like some apps but the pictures work perfectly for learning. This won’t be my only study tool but certainly helpful when I can’t whip out a text book or laptop!more -
Jan 1, 2021 This is great for memorizing the bones. I wish they also have the parts and functions of the body systems -
Best App for learning Skeletal System
Oct 14, 2020 This is the best app overall for learning bones and it is 100% free. There is an ad probably once every 30 minutes but that really doesn’t hinder my studying. If the ads bother you, you can pay to remove them but I def don’t think it’s necessary. I wish the developer made apps for other systems because this is the only one that actually made me learn!more -
Nov 13, 2020 The app so fast is great. Few ads and great content. The app is easy to use and great to help you learn and master the bones with fun and helpful facts. -
AMAZING
Nov 21, 2019 You can very quickly learn all of the bones. It seems like the app learns which ones you are having trouble with because it goes back and quizzes you on the ones you have trouble with to give you more experience and make sure you know them. If that makes sense. I love this app.more

What’s Subpar
Too simple not enough detailed anatomy in there for example there are so many structures on the ulna,humerus,shoulder... ect. it only gives minimal basic anatomy nothing in depth

Potential student
While considering a change in careers at age 60, I was concerned about learning and memorizing anatomy. In two days I’ve learned quite a bit of the skeletal anatomy, Boosting my confidence in reentering college with the possibility of entering the health care field at this stage of my life. This is a very helpful application. -
