This app will not allow you to assign different fathers to siblings!!!!! Apparently they expect every relationship to work out perfectly. They need to fix this cause it’s not a perfect world
It’s a great family tree app if you want something simple. I just wish you could change the orientation of how the tree sits. Also wish there was a way to view the entire tree.
Tried other apps and didn't like them as much. Have had a couple of glitches with the app but overall, very satisfied with it!
Nothing warned me that I would have to buy a subscription after 7 pictures were added. Dishonest. I will remove app.
App is poorly designed. Interface with web based is impossible because it requires 3rd party cookies be allowed. Don't waste your time. They are not open about privacy policies or at what point you must pay.
I've already spent a great deal of time entering five generations and I'm not nearly half done. So far I really like what I see. Organization is very good and people can be navigated and added in a fairly easy way. It certainly could be better, it has not been updated for the latest screens, I think, and there are a few small bugs here and there. Dates could be dates rather than an open text field. Using the coolest phone in the world, people could be tied to Facebook profiles and birth/death locations could be tied to a map, for instance. But it does much better than you will do after 30 attempts on a laaaaarge sheet of paper. I still need to add all the extended family, I have good info and everybody seems to have parents, children and siblings. So far I worked on my favorite branches as well as my own. The rest will follow. I wish they made the software more beautiful. Facebook sharing would be nice as well. The thing hasn't asked me for a cent yet, as the others mention in the reviews. Let's see...
This is the only family tree app that isn't really really really really really stupid! It's so confusing though!
Very confusing. Could not enter middle names. When trying to enter father's death date, continued to get "fatal error" advisory. Gave up & deleted app. Surely there's a better app.
