A full scientific stack, running in-process on the phone.
For the technically curious: here's how Bio-Scry runs whole-genome pipelines on an iPhone, with nothing offloaded to a server.
Everything runs on the phone
A full scientific stack — an embedded Python runtime, native compute, and Metal GPU kernels — executes locally. Nothing is offloaded to a server, and no code is downloaded at runtime; all logic ships in the app.
GPU-accelerated
The heaviest steps — including the neural-field assembler — run on the phone's GPU via Apple's Metal, so full pipelines complete in reasonable time on-device.
Memory-disciplined
The pipelines are engineered to stay within a phone's memory budget, so full genomes assemble on-device without crashing.
Deterministic & versioned
Reference databases carry version manifests, and results record the exact versions used — so a run is reproducible and citable.
The whole workflow, on one screen.
A track-based genome browser renders GC content, read depth, variants, restriction sites and the raw sequence — all computed and drawn on the device, offline.
- Linear & circular views
- Jump by gene, locus or ACGT motif
- Draggable selection down to the base
