Bacteria Bacteria occur in a wide range of shapes, including spheres, rods and spirals. Explore biology with our interactive 3D animations! Be actively involved in learning about biology by following the latest results of 3D animation. Our 3D scenes have been designed for students between 8 and 18 years of age but can be interesting for everyone. Available languages: English, Deutsch, Français, Español, Русский, العربية, 日本語, 中文, 한국어, Italiano, Português, Svenska, Nederlands, Norsk, Polski, Magyar With the mozaik3D App, available in the App store, you can access more than 1200 similar 3D scenes. Mozaik Interactive 3D Our fully interactive scenes can be rotated, enlarged or viewed from pre-set angles. With the predefined views, you can easily navigate through the complex scenes. Some of the 3D scenes contain a Walk mode, enabling you to explore the scene yourself. Most of our 3D scenes include narrations and built-in animations. They also contain captions, entertaining animated quizzes and other visual elements. The 3D scenes are available in several languages, which also offers an opportunity to learn and practice foreign languages. Usage and navigation Rotate the scene by dragging your finger. Zoom the scene in or out by pinching with your fingers. Pan the view by dragging with three fingers. Tap the buttons at the bottom to switch between predefined views. You can change the language and set other functions in the context menu. The context menu can be accessed by touching the bottom corners. Activate VR mode by pressing the VR goggles icon in the bottom right corner. In VR mode, tilt your head to right or left display the navigation panel.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bacteria 3D at none against Microbiology's 6. Bacteria 3D also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks) and ratings volume (70 vs 9). Microbiology's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Microbiology sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Bacteria 3D asks for nothing beyond the download.
Microbiology holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bacteria 3D has 70 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Bacteria 3D ships an update weekly, Microbiology every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
