Seems to work fine except can’t build/link/merge family trees

trix_wins_games on

Japan

Super confusing how to link self other people’s family tree, e.g. my mother made one but they don’t automatically show up nor my siblings or grandparents even though they have built those up.

Great app

himlfec on

Japan

It is easy to use And it help us find our long lost family connection

So much more inclusive and easier to use now

Meliccha on

Japan

I have ancestry in Asia as well as Europe, and as opposed to the early days of development before apps were a thing, I can type in bilingual labels for my ancestors, which is crucial in recording and passing on a huge part of my genealogy research. I can show my Japanese relatives, and as I travel anywhere in the world, I have it all at my fingertips whenever I need to show someone some information for any part of my tree.

Beautiful

App bug?

Jace2010 on

Japan

The app keeps crashing since the update. I've tried restarting my phone, closing app, everything. I can't open it any more...

Convenience

Jonokun on

Japan

Very convenient I can do this research from both smartphone, tablet and PC.

Great App Despite what T. Y. T. Says

Rockin' Ralph on

Japan

This is absolutely the best genealogy app out there. So simple to use. Despite what T. Y. T. says in his review. You do need to have an online account (that is free by the way). But this just ensures your data is saved and accessible anywhere you go. Most apps out there have some form of online account that you need to sign up with. Not sure what he spent $30 on? Unless it was to buy the PC software which is worth the price. I do wish there was a way that you could merge/remove duplicate records like you can on the PC app. I use this app daily and absolutely love it. In fact something's I like better than the PC app. It would be nice to be able to merge/compare entries from within the app itself. Keep the updates coming. Keeps getting better and better.
