iPathways


iPathways is a program available through the App store for iPhone and iPad that catalogs biological pathways.  The pros are that the App is really fast, since the pathways are images rather than changing objects.  The downside to this particular App is that each pathway is so extensive that you have to pinch and drag an awful lot to move around the image.  Is it as good as a searchable manually curated database such as Protein Center?  Definitely not!  But is it useful?  Absolutely.  And don't take my word for it, this App has over 6,500 other registered users.
