Pros
Pro 3 apps in 1 (in app purchases)
With this app you can purchase the more detailed muscular (think Muscle System Pro) and skeletal systems (Skeletal System Pro) to work within Essential Anatomy instead of having 3 separate stand alone applications with minor variations in the display of details and features. Having it all within one app is nice. You can't do this with the visible body line of applications for example.
Pro Feels like a real Mac program
With Mac menu bar entries, a working toolbar, and settings (albeit very bare!) it actually feels like a Mac application rather than just a bare window with flash content (unity player actually) like the Visible Body line of applications do.
Cons
Con White background is the only option
It'd be nice to have a black background, neutral gray, or themes, like a night mode etc. More control and user configurable settings in general is desired.
Con No easy way to adjust controls since there are no user settings
There should be user configurable settings but there are none. If one wants to change them to something different it will require using a hotkey program and setting up a profile specifically for each of the visible body line of applications.
That being said, the control bindings are shown in a downloadable PDF on the visible body support website.
