But I wish there was more options for that. For instance, it would be nice to have an untimed mode, so you could just practice the morphology. Additionally, it would be nice if there could be a few types of tests, like the basic WBC/RBC morphology currently available, and another one for cell types seen in malignancies, featuring Blasts and what not. Currently, one of my biggest struggles is just correctly ID’ing the maturation stages of the RBCs and WBCs, so being able to work on that would be helpful. ### 4/5 — Great Hematology app!! *2016-03-20* This educational app helps increase proficiency in hemopoietic cell identification through different maturation stages and types, as well as abnormalities. It can directly aid in hematology skills used by lab professionals and students, and is a great app for studying. The interface is straightforward and easy to navigate and use. It would greatly help to have a larger database of cells to identify in the quiz portion, as well as more examples of typical, atypical, and abnormal cells, which I would pay a fee for. Overall, this is a wonderful free app! ### 4/5 — Great for Hematology Students! *2015-09-19, version 1.05* Awesome way to review those tricky cells that are needed to perform CBCs. Love that I have an on the go way to practice cell recognition! ### 5/5 — Cella vision *2015-03-29, version 1.05* Great App!! ### 5/5 — Useful Asset *2015-03-12* This app is a very useful hematology study asset to have at your disposal. It offers an enjoyable way to hone your skills in regards to recognizing various cellular morphologies. The app's organization and design make it easy to learn quickly. ### 4/5 — Very informative *2015-02-25, version 1.05* Only needs clarity and hoping that the slides can be zoomed and there are labels for every detail of the cell structures for better understanding and identification. ### 5/5 — Great App *2015-02-14, version 1.05* Amazing App! Such a good way to study for cell identification. Love it! ### 5/5 — Perfect practice and fun *2014-08-29, version 1.05* Great review tool man!!!! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2014-07-11, version 1.05* Great for diff practice. ### 5/5 — Recommended. *2014-05-08, version 1.05* Excellent hematology review tool. ### 4/5 — Great! *2014-05-06, version 1.05* Perfect app for my hematology class. :) ### 5/5 — Good study tool *2014-04-23, version 1.05* This app is really good for hematology! It would help to have the coag cascade. But other wise really nice explanations! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Quiz is broken or rigged *2024-10-11* It takes too long for the quiz to move to the next question after you get a right answer. It will also display duplicate images but only one will count as correct, making you being right or wrong in your selection up to random chance; this occurs with the giant thrombocyte question a lot. ### 1/5 — Ridiculous timer, no quizzes for specific cells *2024-02-17* Whoever programmed the timer for the CellQuiz needs to be fired from future study guides. It is not helpful whatsoever to give people less than two seconds to look at up to 9 images and rapid fire a correct choice. 90-95% of the time I am making mistakes because I’m in a rush to beat the timer so I can unlock the cells I ACTUALLY want to practice (hematopoietic cell lineages, for example). What’s worse, these immature and abnormal cell types require close inspection for the presence of things like nucleoli or Dolhe bodies that are not readily apparent in certain cell pictures. There is NO need to be rushing students and penalizing them with time. It would be one thing if we were able to quiz ourselves on specific cell types, but we are not. You end up repeating the same basic cells over and over and wasting a lot of time. This would have been such an easy option to implement but the app designers were too busy building a hazing program to care. This isn’t Elden Ring, you’re teaching current and future healthcare workers. ### 1/5 — Timer issues *2019-07-25* I keep heated blanket and not eaten by the end zone I need to remove the timer on the quiz. Why do people think they should have been in my room? Stop. I'm not sure about that. Kept downloading 3 times and still cannot open the app on my phone. Very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Not opening *2011-11-07, version 1.04* Tried twice and can't get the app to open on my iPod. Very disappointed, ### 2/5 — Ok but needs improvement *2024-10-23* As many people have said, there should be an option to remove the timer. The test also needs to be more random. It seems I always start with normal WBCs then, it finally moves on to new/abnormal cells when I’m 30 seconds in. Because of this, there are certain cells you will NOT be able to practice because the timer will run out before you get to it. The timer can also make can have you make simple mistakes. After a while, monos and lymph’s started to look the same, as I was frantically trying to get to other types of cells. Not a great study tool once you learn basic white blood cells. I’m assuming the developers don’t care since they have ignored this complaint for 5+ years. ### 2/5 — Needs improvement *2018-09-12* It would be very helpful if you could be quizzed per section. For example.. hematopoeisis (erythropoesis) or hematopoeisis (monopoiesis). We are learning the cells by sections in class and it’s confusing when the quiz asks them all. Thank you. ### 3/5 — Cell Quiz *2025-10-08* It makes more sense to have the cell name at the top of the screen and then the pictures toward the middle/bottom of the screen. ### 3/5 — Missing WBCs *2018-01-25* Was a wonderful app until recently. Now all I have are RBCs. What happened to all of the WBCs???? ### 3/5 — Please! *2013-12-25, version 1.05* lack support for iphone 5/5c/5s screen!!!! ### 4/5 — Timer issues *2019-05-30* Need to remove the timer on the quiz. Other than that it’s awesome ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Add slides for differential stimulator *2025-09-30* The app is excellent and enjoyable to learn about Myeloid and Lymphoid cell lineage morphologies but when perform or encounter different slides for diff it’s a completely different experience than just observation and learn the cells ### 5/5 — Fun *2025-02-16* Fun low stakes quiz that gives me a break from medical school but is still very helpful. I wish there were things like this for more fields ### 5/5 — Great APP *2016-10-29* CellAtlas is a great APP! It helped me a lot with identifying cells. The APP is very easy to navigate. It would help if the quiz gave us more time though. Overall, it is a great APP! ### 5/5 — Great for Morphology Training *2016-06-16, version 1.05* This app is really good alongside my training in the lab. The quiz is a fun way of testing myself! ### 5/5 — Top App *2015-12-05, version 1.05* Very good App. Nice concise information. And excellent morphology quiz anytime anywhere. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2015-11-29, version 1.05* Very good teaching App. ### 5/5 — Very Useful *2015-09-03, version 1.05* Great app for hematology! ### 5/5 — ASCP *2015-08-17, version 1.05* It helps! ### 5/5 — Wohooo *2015-08-01, version 1.05* Best app ever ### 5/5 — Awesome!!! *2015-05-10, version 1.05* Awesome tool to use in teaching and continue learning --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
