Froggipedia by Embibe Reviews

First impression is great. After you dissect the frog (takes 2-5 min), you’re done. Downloaded, dissected, showed a friend, deleted from my iPad. Maybe one day.

Spent money on this because the Apple Editors touted this apps ability to virtually “dissect a frog.” It’s super gimmicky, and has no real user input besides dragging your finger across the screen.

Apps not ready yet, I’ll keep it in hopes of a better update, more info, tongue trick, audio descriptions, better & more dissection. Why do they call this AR it would be much better if we had 360 degree 3D control that way hovering / selecting would be easier, I should have read the comments.

This description is very misleading. Froggipedia offers one quiz with eight preloaded organs to remove. The dissections are also preloaded and do not offer any variety—it is useful once and that is it. There is also no way to make mistakes while performing the point and click dissection. People learn from mistakes. The virtual frog is fun for two seconds and then pointless. There is also no pressure sensitivity, as was advertised. I will be requesting a refund.

Needs to be more responsive. It’s pretty boring. It’s more like clicking through slides.

Froggipedia would be amazing for my kids if there was a way to have the contents read out load when looking at different areas of the frog.

Purchased to support. Keep up the good work & hope to see more apps like this one!
Purchased for my 8 year old who learned the life cycle of frog in school this year. I think Froggipedia has the potential to be a hit for 2nd grade classrooms. We enjoyed going through Froggipedia together.
I liked the simplicity, but noticed room for improvement just going through it with my child.
-more details into the organs maybe with examples of function, where they connect etc. For example my son was completely lost on what the red and blue meant. He had questions about everything.
-I’d offer a pop up over the bigger words with smaller words for children to understand to learn the bigger words.
I went through it with my child so was able to explain, but it took away from Froggipedia to have him to learn words on the side instead of words and body parts he already knew.
-my child asked about the frog. It would be neat if you added a frog detailed description somewhere within Froggipedia because I guess they didn’t learn this in school either? I don’t know why because if you are going to learn the life cycle of something you should at least be learning the basics about the creature too right?
His questions were
Where they lay eggs, how long their tongues are, how many eggs they lay, how long do frogs live, do frogs have the same body parts as us, do frogs have toes, do frogs smell things, what is algae, what happens to the tail, where the legs come from, are they born with hearts, do they see color, do frogs have teeth, how big the eggs are, why the frog skin is bumpy, is a frog the same as a toad
Just to list a few of his questions.
Hope this input helps a little.

i love herpetology and there’s no shortage of frogs in the world, so i decided i want to learn about the internal structures of a frog. Froggipedia does what it says it does, and provides useful information about the anatomy of a frog. admittedly, the contents are a little shallow, but i found the information provided to be useful. i look forward to future improvements of Froggipedia . a recommendation i do have is more information on each of the organs and how they function. Froggipedia won’t make you a frog expert but i definitely learned from it and i’m happy that i was able to see the inside of a frog without having to kill a real one. 🐸💚

Could you please update this to be used on the Xs Max. The notch is cutting out some of the information. Otherwise very nice.

I just downloaded Froggipedia and it has been loading for a long time, about 10 minutes so I haven’t actually experienced the game yet but...I’ll write another review once it downloads

Really good app! I’m waiting for new :)

Great app, saves a frog

by Super Star App

I don’t understand the negative reviews; what exactly do you expect? When I taught fifth grade science, one of our objectives was organism development. This included direct development (like humans), complete metamorphosis (like butterflies), and incomplete metamorphosis (like frogs). I had dragonfly larvae, chicken eggs in an incubator, and, of course, tadpoles. We watched every organism change. My students were always asking “can we dissect something, please.” Froggipedia would have been a perfect substitution for an actual dissection. Teachers out there — load it onto a few iPads to use during stations. Please keep adding features and upgrading your app. Love this.

I like learning about frogs

by Silk 'n Such

Please, please, please add additional reference material for the plethora of different species, including the various phenotypes that can be observed—all via glorious AR. Also, please gimme gimme a 3d-view of a male frog calling a mate, perhaps the single-most iconic behavior of a stereotypical frog, with an analysis of the systems involved. Please also include basic reference about contractile units (sarcomeres) that allow such amazing jump distances and such fast/accurate/ranged tongue strikes.

There’s already an abundance of reference in Froggipedia ’s material for a solid introduction. Please use the influx from the “App of the Year 2018” earnings-surge towards creating a truly definitive frog guide. High five!

Add iPad mini 4 compatibility

This needed to exist when I was young and in school! I have a 6 year old now and watching her eyes when she can see and interact with the frog is amazing! She is learning so much and I am even picking up stuff I forgot as well! A great interactive way for you to spend time with kids and interact in a way you could never do before! This developer has really put in the work to make it look great and run super smooth

by Alamodecember

Gotta hand it to these folks. That frog looks very real!

by JunHigashi

It would be nice to see the mouse version involving much greater depth and including a genetics variation simulation. Thanks

This is a great app for Learning with visual details and provides perfect learning aids for younger children to learn about dissection without messing with forceps !
