Product Review of The Human Body by Tinybop

The Human Body by Tinybop allows learners to explore anatomy and biology through the lens of the human body. With a fully functioning circulatory, respiratory, and digestive system, learners can explore the sounds of the heart, the gurgle of the guts, and more. In all, The Human Body by Tinybop covers eight bodily systems: muscular, skeletal, nervous, digestive, circulatory, respiratory, immune, and skin. Students can study interactive organ models, feed the body, watch sound vibrations travel through the ear canal, and learn new vocabulary with in-app text labels. The app also comes with a free handbook for educators and parents full of discussion questions and additional facts.

What Users Love About the App
“Great app, and even though I’m slightly blinded by nostalgia, holy heck, I loved this app. Hopefully I get to see the app focused on animals do even better than this if I decide to download it.”
“My son who is now 4 has loved this app for the past half year. We were learning about the human body and why he should eat healthy so that everything works well together. And this is exactly what he needed. It does not just give him the information in text or spoken form, he gets to take the lead in experimenting.”
“One of the best apps i have ever downloaded and purchased for my kid. He was obsessed with body parts and with this app, he definitely learned a lot. I think it gave kids very clear introductions to all the systems and organs and it was like games for him to put puzzles together.”
“I showed my brother this who is 4 and he loves it it’s a simple way to teach children the basics of the human body.”
“Hello, TinyBop! You really are incredible game makers. You have done it again, congrats! This app is incredible it taught me when I was younger more about the body and I also showed the rest of my younger family it, they loved and and have downloaded other of your games, they learned so much whilst being entertained. Love it!”
What Users Dislike About the App
“We constantly get an annoying pop-up to turn on our microphone. What gives? The app should be putting out sound, not us. For privacy reasons, the microphone will stay off. Also, the app has no audible explanations for what is going on as my child tries out different systems on the body. Also, this app seems to have no sound whatsoever. Are we missing something? A little clunky.”
“If your child can’t read, they can not navigate or understand this app without adult assistance. I would go as far as saying because of that, it could be more confusing than beneficial.”
“The apps controls are a bit clumsy, and it’s hard to view any system without interference from the side panel and there not being enough space to swipe the ‘switch’ all the way back and forth to change internal and external views.”
