### 1/5 — Not helpful

*2021-12-09, version 1.3.0*

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

### 3/5 — Biotech

*2011-10-21, version 1.1*

Great pre-lab activity for a high school science class. We do a similar lab at our school with soil bacteria. Perhaps more virtual labs for iPads in the future? The iPad is in need of science apps that teach something. Thanks HHMI

### 4/5 — I love it!

*2012-02-09, version 1.1*

More samples please.

### 5/5 — Straight forward

*2019-05-23, version 1.2.3*

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.

### 5/5 — Awesome!!
