What is a .loom file?
Loom is an HDF5-based format used for large omics datasets, especially single-cell RNA sequencing matrices and annotations.
Why is .loom hard to open on a phone?
- Phone file viewers usually cannot inspect HDF5-based Loom files.
- Loom files can contain large matrices, row attributes, column attributes, layers, and graphs.
- A local structure preview helps confirm the dataset without uploading research data.
What OpenOnPhone does not do
OpenOnPhone is for quick local inspection. It does not replace the original professional app for editing, conversion, exact layout, formulas, measurements, security review, or full workflow features.
MIME examples
