## Take a Name LDS Family History Description
Take a Name is a family history app for LDS Church members who want to take their own family names to the temple. It requires a FamilySearch account with access to LDS ordinances.

• Find temple ready ancestors—Take a Name searches the FamilySearch tree for your deceased ancestors and double checks that LDS ordinances are ready for the temple.

• Request LDS ordinances and print temple cards – from your phone!

• Try before you buy, pick your price—Try Take a Name for free! You can purchase the app when you're ready via in-app purchase.

• Less time searching, more time serving—Take a Name typically delivers dozens of temple ready family names in a matter of minutes. It’s genealogy, but easier!

• FamilySearch Certified—Kinpoint is a FamilySearch partner, authorized to submit names for temple work.

• Data integrity—Take a Name performs a detailed set of data checks to provide confidence that an LDS ordinance is temple ready. It also excludes names of ancestors with unresolved duplicates. Take a Name does far more than simply scraping the FamilySearch website for green temples!

Spend time in the temple with your ancestors instead of outside trying to find them.

Genealogy has never been so satisfying!

## Take a Name LDS Family History Reviews in United States

### **--- "Sad it doesn’t work"
I use to use this app a lot and then stopped for awhile. Now no matter what I can’t get into my account. I’ve even clicked the “create an account” to just make a new one and it crashes every time. It doesn’t recognize my log in information. It’s a shame really. I loved this app when it worked.
-- SistaTayDaBae, 2025-06-14

### *---- "Not sure if I will use this"
Does not recognize my user name and password: cannot reset password.  I guess the devs gave up?
-- Countryboy4351, 2025-06-12

### *---- "Used to love"
I used to love this app. It was super helpful at getting names. Haven’t had it work for me in awhile though. Doesn’t recognize my login and I’ve tried asking “forgot password/username”. It just sends me back to the homepage. Tried to go online but there’s you can do on the website. Please fix!
-- Dancegirlcook, 2025-05-10

### *---- "Not working"
No longer works
-- Gina3223, 2025-04-14

### ***-- "I need help! Is it my phone or the app!"
I have loved using this app on my phone. However I have forgotten my login and it will not let me reset it. I click every button on the screen and nothing happens. I have even tired putting in my church login and still nothing happens. Please I need mine fixed!
-- Sister Shoup, 2025-04-11

### *---- "Not working"
Can’t log in, can’t reset account.  What happened?
-- 865423, 2025-03-23

### ****- "It no longer works - 2025"
When it worked, we ALL loved it and used it daily. Now, it won’t let me even login. Sad day.
-- 1Tamalamz, 2025-02-27

### ***** "Family History Made Easy"
Loved this app! I’d do a weekly search every Sunday to get more names. Sad to say in 2025 it isn’t working for me anymore, not sure why? It says my credentials are wrong for my Family Search account. I hope the app didn’t go out of business. It was a game changer for temple work.
-- JustReviewing25, 2025-02-18

### *---- "Why is this still on the app store?"
Seems like a great idea. Doesn’t open and won’t accept my LDS.org user/pwd.
-- Moulton Lava 1, 2025-02-13

### ***-- "Great when it works"
When you can get the app to work it’s great. Sign in issues, the app just sits there or gives you credential issues. At this point I can’t get it to work, too bad because it can be quite useful. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling it, that was no help.
