Minor updates and bug fixes

Constantly changing

This DNA is *constantly* changing. In extremely dramatic ways. Other than for brief amusement, it’s mostly a crock. I am disgusted.

Love the Updates

Thanks guys!

Questionably Inaccurate

Results don’t really match what I have been told. I am not sure if there are just very few people that use this however I did in hopes to connect with lost family members which was very very dissatisfying as there wasn’t much to go off of. The health and ancestry seemed very generic and not specialized at all questioning the accuracy.

I’d definitely say for the price it isn’t really worth it. I regret purchasing its service.

So great!

This is so spot on!! it’s very interesting how how through your DNA, you can narrow things down such as me not liking cilantro, which is pretty spot on, me afraid of flying, which is pretty spot on, and then it gives me all kinds of medical things to watch out for. One of them saying I have macular degeneration which I do have. It helps me be proactive regarding my health

Not what I expected

I’d say, all of the Medical report given is just the stupid surveys the app gives to you answer. It’s honestly not ground breaking in my opinion, because you can actually get the same information elsewhere online for free and your primary care doctor. The genetic testing is very basic and generalized. I’d save your money on this test honestly and go with Ancestry instead. Ancestry is miles ahead of genetic information given and though not focussed on Medical stuff, 23andMe is honestly not worth the money. The app tries to entice you with other medical stuff, but it’s behind a pay wall and from the vague medical information given on my test, the medical portion is lame at its best.
