## What is MySequence?

Analyse DNA sequences on your iPhone. 
MySequence loads and displays .abi, .ab1, or .scf files, a file format commonly used in DNA sequencing. If you are getting your sequencing results as zipped mail attachments, MySequence has you covered as well. 

MySequence stores and organises your sequencing files and allows you to synch your sequencing files across all your devices
The app allows viewing and editing of the raw data, extracts the DNA sequence and base positions, translates the DNA sequence into an amino acid sequence of the desired frame and allows export of sequence, translation and a high-quality PDF report via email, AirPrint or to other iPhone - iPad applications.

MySequence also opens and analyses Next-Generation Sequencing data (FastQ format) to check the result and quality of your reaction directly on you mobile device.

## Key features

- Analyze .abi, .ab1, .scf, and FastQ files
- View and edit raw DNA data
- Extract DNA sequence and base positions
- Translate DNA to amino acid sequences
- Export sequence, translation, and PDF reports
- Organize and sync sequencing files
- Analyze Next-Generation Sequencing data

### 1/5 — Scam

*2024-05-29*

I downloaded this app and when I go to open it,my files app opens up instead saying that Sequence “accessed these files” and of course one of the files is my DNA data and the others are Health summaries from my physicians. I can’t get it to do anything else. I’m going to try logging in to Sequence on the web

### 2/5 — Not working

*2024-05-22*

Am I missing something? Can’t seem to upload anything, closed down when I try.

### 1/5 — Slow product receipt

*2024-02-27*

I ordered the product almost month ago and still haven’t received my two genetic kits! One for me and one for my wife. Sadly I’m ready to get a refund

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-01-08*

As a genetics laboratory technician, I always had to carry a laptop with me for sequence analysis of patients in emergency situations, and I was looking for an iPhone app. This app is really great. Thanks to the creators of the program.

### 3/5 — Cool but Can't Edit

*2023-04-25*

Very cool that I can even view on my iPad, but if I can't edit it it's pretty useless.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-01-04, version 1.5.4*

Everything an ab1 file downloaded and opened via the app, it crashes and shuts down.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2018-03-07*

This app does not work. It will not import from text files, fast a files or Ab1 files. It simply does not recognize the file type. What is does do though, is gain access to your Google Drive, iCloud Drive and iPad folders. 

Beyond that, it has no function and cannot do anything. 

“Waste of time” does not even begin to describe this app.

The high rating reviews are fake. 

Do not proceed.

**Developer response:** Dear letkom7588,
thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear MySequence is not working properly for you. If it's not too much to ask, would you mind contacting us directly (support@telethon.jp) and describe exactly what you are trying to do, ideally with a sample file that refuses to open in MySequence.

With best regards from Tokyo

Morten

### 3/5 — Won’t open the file

*2017-11-23*

Can’t open the file, the apps force close

### 1/5 — Useless

*2015-04-18*

I was excited to find a free sequencing app, however, it crashes when I try to download sequence from my dropbox.  Very sad.

### 3/5 — Potentially very useful

*2014-06-05, version 1.1*

Hi Morten if you are checking and still active is potentially an awsome app. Are you able to tweak a few things
1) have an easy "close" button so you can go back to the load sequence window instead of having to close and reopen the app for a new sequence
2) Display the  raw data , ie the graph of rfu vs scan number as an alternative view, this is essential for people wanting to troubleshoot sequencing.
These two changes would make this a must have app for most in the biological sciences working with DNA sequence
Cheers
Dave
