Frequently asked questions

Is the app available for Android, Blackberry or Window Phone 7?

No, currently the Manual of Acupuncture app is only available for iOS (iPhone, iPod Touch & iPad).


There is no sound in the videos, how can I fix it?

Sound issues in the videos usually relate to the device being muted. Please first check that your device's volume is set to a suitable level, then:

For iPod Touch & iPhone:

  • Have you checked the mute switch is not activated?

For iPad:

  • If you use the side switch for muting: check the side switch is not active.
  • If you use the side switch for rotation lock: check the iPad is not muted by clicking the home button twice and swiping right on the app task bar. The mute control is located next to the "Play / Pause" buttons.

The videos are not working, what is the problem?

The current version of the app (version 1.1) has a bug which prevents the videos from working on iOS 3.x. If you are using a first generation iPod touch or a first generation iPhone you might have problems playing the videos. We are working towards fixing this issue in the next release.


When I open the app all I see is a blank screen, how can I fix it?

Some users of the app have reported this occasional unexpected behaviour, if you encounter this issue please force quit the app by following these steps. Once the app has been force quit open it again as usual. If you experience this issue please get in touch as we are currently trying to gather information as to what is causing it.


Does the app support landscape orientation mode?

No, currently the app only supports portrait orientation mode, we are looking to include this functionality in the next version of the app.


Is the app available in any other language than English?

No, currently the app is only available in English.


If I buy the iPhone version, will I have to pay again for the iPad version?

As long as your iPhone and iPad are linked to the same iTunes account you will only need to purchase the app once.
