App Store Description

BABYGlimpse is first DNA-powered app for couples to discover and explore the genetic-related traits their children may inherit.

Revealing the brighter side of personal genomics, BABYGlimpse is a fun and informational experience, not a medical test. We call it "sunshine science", a journey into the unique characteristic and quirks that couples can compare and share, and see what they might pass along to the next generation.

Using at-home collection kits from Helix, both parents provide a saliva sample which is processed in Helix’s CLIA- and CAP-accredited next-generation sequencing lab. Helix securely stores the data and provides HumanCode access to the portion of the genome that pertains to the information delivered in BABYGlimpse.

The app then utilizes a proprietary computational method to combine the couple’s DNA results and make predictions on the possible traits of their future child. The results are delivered to couples through the BABYGlimpse app for iPhone, or via a secure customer web portal.

BABYGlimpse enables couples to explore 20+ traits, including ancestry, across 3 core views: themselves, a side-by-side comparison with their partner, and the projected outcome for their offspring.

BABYGlimpse creates a fun and intimate conversation between a couple, about the similarities and differences in their own genetics, and what traits they may pass on to their offspring.

Traits covered in BABYGlimpse:
- Ancestry: a panel which looks at ancestral origins across 5 continents and 26 country-level regions
- Appearance: eye color, hair color, skin tone, and more
- Physical: Athletic type, adult height
- Behavior: "Warrior" vs "strategist" mindset, breastfeeding duration
- Sleep quality
- Reactions: mosquito bite size
- Dietary: Lactose intolerance, sweet taste preference, cilantro aversion, caffeine metabolism
- Many more
