Genomapp
Interpretation add-on, not a lab. The 2025 database update meaningfully improved BRCA, CFTR, and APOE coverage, which makes it a better companion than it was last issue. Worth bolting onto any WGS purchase — MyHeritage's new LP-WGS raw files included, once MyHeritage ships the download. Explicitly not a substitute for a sequencer. Interpretation layer — bring your own raw data. Our review covers all eight dimensions we test — from coverage depthcoverageHow many times, on average, each base is read. 30× is the consumer standard; 100× is used for hard-to-call variants and some cancer assays; 1× (low-pass) is suitable for genealogy but not for clinical variant calls. to clinical reporting quality — based on kits purchased with reader-supported funds, timed turnarounds across six orders, and an independent check of raw read filesFASTQRaw sequencing read file.

- +2025 database update added 1,000+ BRCA markers, 362 CFTR markers, 57 APOE markers
- +Works as a companion to any raw-data kit — Nebula backups, SelfDecode exports, or MyHeritage LP-WGS

Genomapp sits in the consumer whole genome sequencingWGSWhole Genome Sequencing — reading (nearly) all 3 billion base pairs of your DNA, as opposed to genotyping arrays which sample ~600,000 known positions. market at a price point of $15. Sequencing runs on interpretation app — consumes raw data from 23andme, ancestrydna, or any wgs provider. Company's public turnaround claim: Minutes (after you upload your raw file). This section renders a structured summary from public information until our reader-supported testing cycle publishes.
Raw files — BAMBAMAligned reads mapped to a reference genome. The typical intermediate file., FASTQFASTQRaw sequencing read file. The unprocessed output of the sequencer., VCFVCFVariant Call Format — the compact list of positions where your genome differs from the reference. — are not offered by this provider. Interpretation add-on, not a lab. Our editorial verdict at a glance: Interpretation add-on, not a lab. The 2025 database update meaningfully improved BRCA, CFTR, and APOE coverage, which makes it a better companion than it was last issue.

The documented weak spots are not a sequencer — you still need raw data from somewhere, and pricing opaque on the website; check the app stores. Neither is necessarily a deal-breaker, but both are worth weighing before you click buy.
