Not helpful

Although this app is very good and it helps understand DNA it is simple and the terms used are very advanced.

Straight forward

Very simplistic and easy to use. The very basics of learning DNA sequencing visualized. Would be nice if there were more strains or the possibility to encode your own.

Awesome!!

Must play this app. The creator made it very realistic and it is very fascinating. A 5-star app indeed!
