Amino Acid Academy is a simple flashcard-style learning tool to help you memorize the structures, names and codes of the 20 naturally-occurring amino acids.
- Browse the information table or simply dive right into the test and see how many you already know!
- Great for school and university students alike.
- Simple interface with traditional chalkboard style drawings.

- New picture mode added!
- You can now swipe left and right through the amino acid library for smoother access.
- Enhanced animations.
It works perfectly. Fore some feedback, I would advise you to add the same game just with the structures made with a chem drawler. Otherwise Highscores would be great and maybe a function that allows you to see, where you make most mistakes so you can do a round with the AA that you get wrong most of the time. Otherwise a Highscore with the most correct guesses you have had would be cool.
Very well made app though!

Great app for learning the amino acids
Great app for learning the names, 3 & 1 letter codes, and recognizing the structure of amino acids. Would be a nice addition if there was a mode that quizzed based on categorization with questions like “identify the amino acid with the negatively charged side chain at pH 7.0”. Otherwise a very good free app for getting down the basics of the 20 common amino acids.

Useful for biochemistry
I have been using this app to study for bio chemistry, it was quick and efficient and straight to the point. Use it wherever you’d like.

So helpful for Biochemisty
Im having to learn the amino acid structures and this app has been so so so helpful! I love how it quizzes you on names and structures!
Only suggestion I could make would be to add in hydrophobicity!

Best app for AA
Thanks for making this! It’s not just a flash card app. You get quizzed in a quick way which I feel encouraged learning and feedback.

Sooooooooooooo helpful!
A perfect application to remember the amino acids! Hope there will be more applications like this one( ・∀・)

Great for studying on the go!
So far so good, I love how simple it is. It's a great way for me to learn the molecular structure of different amino acids.
