How the App Is Structured #
This overview introduces the layout of the Anatomy app so you know where to find things before diving into specific tasks.
Main navigation #
The left-hand sidebar is always visible and has three sections:
- Home – a dashboard with new, popular, and recently viewed content.
- 3D Model – an interactive human body model you can rotate, isolate, and explore by muscle, bone, or joint.
- Theory – a video library organized by topic (Anatomical Terminology, Origin & Insertion, Muscle Physiology, Nerves Anatomy, Anatomy Trains).
A Help icon sits at the bottom of the sidebar with FAQs, feedback, and legal links.

Home screen #
When you open the app you land on Home. It shows a welcome message and several horizontal, scrollable rows of content: “New Content,” “Most Popular,” “Recently Viewed,” and “You Might Be Interested In.” These rows are for browsing and discovery — click any thumbnail to open that video or model view.

Top bar #
Across the top of every screen you’ll find:
– **Search** – a text field that searches the entire app at once (both the 3D Model’s muscles/bones/joints and Theory videos).
– **Bookmark icon** – opens **My Collection**, where saved videos are stored.
– **Profile icon** – your account menu (name, email, My Profile, Pricing, and Log out).

The 3D Model section #
Using the 3D Model #
This covers the interactive 3D body model, which lets you explore muscles, bones, and joints, and jump directly from any structure to related exercises.
Opening the model #
- Click **3D Model** in the left sidebar.
- The model loads facing forward, showing the muscular layer by default.

Switching layers #
On the right side of the screen, three icons let you switch which body system is displayed:
– **Muscles** (default)
– **Bones**
– **Joints**
Click any icon to switch the entire model to that layer.

Moving around the model #
– Click and drag on the model to rotate it.
– Use the **+** and **–** icons on the right to zoom in and out.
– Click the **Home View** icon (bottom right) to reset the camera to the default angle.
– Use the **undo** and **redo** arrows (bottom left of the toolbar) to step back or forward through your recent view changes.

Selecting a muscle, bone, or joint #
- Click directly on any structure on the model, or use the in-model search (magnifying glass icon) to find it by name.
- A panel opens on the left with the structure’s name and tabs for related structures in the same group (for example, clicking one abdominal muscle shows tabs for other abdominal muscles).
- **Isolate** hides everything except the selected structure. **Hide** removes it from view entirely.

Reading the info panel #
Inside the panel, three expandable rows give you details:
– **Movements** – the actions the muscle performs, each with a short demo clip.
– **General Info** – category and classification details.
– **Origin & Insertion** – where the muscle attaches on the skeleton.

Jumping to exercises from a muscle #
Below the info rows is an **Exercises** section with two links: **Strengthening** and **Stretching**. Clicking either expands a scrollable list of exercise cards that train (or stretch) that specific muscle — click any card to open its full exercise page.

Tips #
– Use Isolate when you want a clean view of one muscle without visual clutter from surrounding structures.
– The Strengthening/Stretching links inside a muscle’s panel are the fastest way to go from “what does this muscle do” to “how do I train it.”
– If you lose your place after zooming or rotating, click Home View to reset instantly rather than manually rotating back.
The Theory section #
This is a video library. A left-hand list lets you jump to a specific topic category, or browse “All Videos.” Each category shows its videos as thumbnails with a duration badge; clicking one opens a simple video player.

My Collection #
Click the bookmark icon in the top bar to open My Collection. By default there’s one folder, **My Favorites**, and you can create additional folders to organize saved videos. A free-text search box lets you search within your saved items.
[SCREENSHOT: My Collection panel open, showing the Free search field, New Folder button, and My Favorites folder]
Account menu #
Clicking your profile icon (top right) opens a menu with your name and email, plus links to **My Profile** (account details and language) and **Pricing**.
[SCREENSHOT: Profile dropdown menu open, showing name/email at top and My Profile, Pricing, Log out options — email address blurred out for privacy before publishing]
Tips #
– The in-app Search (top bar) is the fastest way to jump straight to a muscle, bone, joint, or video — you don’t need to browse through Theory or the 3D Model manually.
– Content saved to My Collection is only visible to your account and won’t affect what other users see.
