What a let down!!
Scorp83water
Don't let Free fool you. Once I downloaded was excited to search through but you have to join a monthly membership with a fee for it to give you any information. Very confusing to use. HORRIBLE! Doesn't deserve the one star.
Better as a tree reader than a truly interactive tool.

If you are a Geneanet user, then I am quite sure you will find this free application handy. It simply allow you to download your tree to your iphone so that you can refer to it without needing access to your computer or even to the internet. Anyone who can gain access to your online data can do the same thing, so it is handy for sharing. You can have the cel phone download an update version anytime you need an update. The download is quick because it doesn't include pictures or related archived documents. And because the data kives in the phone's memory, access, occe downloaded, is instantaneous. So if you need to know your cousin's wedding anniversary, or your mother-in-law's birthday, there it is, instantly at your fingertips! Search features enable you to quickly get to quickly locate any name. On the other hand, If you desire to WORK on the tree, the application also gives you online access (and your privileges will depend on what iD you use. Those who don't like this application probably find this aspect of it unsatisfactory. Also, the application as a whole can use improvements, in particular more options to back out and cancel steps one has taken by mistake.
Disappointing
Stangfan
I've had a geneanet account for year and had hopes for this app. Very frustrating and hard to use. To creat a tree it takes you to the web but then requires Flash, on an iOS device! It says you can import a Gedcom but give error messages, in French. I gave up and deleted it. Really NO STARS!
With latest update, app locks up
MLouden
With the new adware in yesterday's release, if you don't go to the website, the app locks up and doesn't open. The software was pretty cool, but now....
Lacking it's original appeal
MFinnie
The app lacks so many of the appealing and useful features of the desktop website.
Not like website
Luline49
This app is useless. It has none of the features that the website(desktop) version has. Please fix this.

You can view the website in English but there’s no language option in the app that I could find.
