Latest reviews of Canine Acupoints app for iPhone and iPad
Info is too basic to warrant the charge.
This is an expensive app but worth the money when you consider the fact that there are no other applications available in this category for animals. I teach animal massage and have already used this in my class and my students like using this as a learning tool and will use this in the field as a portable reference. The pathology section is very helpful for the students as well. At some point in the future I hope that the authors will add some dimensionality to this app so that the underlying boney landmarks, muscles, nerves and bones can be seen as well and a point location description for each point.
When this app has the point I am interested in, I find it to be quite useful. It looks nice, has some decent point info, and the meridian diagrams are well done (though muscle/skeletal overlays would be helpful). 1 have 2 main disappointments: 1) the point database is quite abbreviated. I often find myself switching from this app to TcmClinicAid to get info on the many points not included. 2) Lack of search functionality. It would be great to be able to search points by keyword. Given the level of abbreviation I was quite disappointed to have paid such a premium, especially given that there are significantly richer human oriented apps at the same or lower price points.
A limited amount of points are described in this app. Its definitely not worth the charge and I wish I didnt buy it.
