GedView

opladen van meerdere gedcom bestanden gaat heel makkelijk - gegevens te bekijken in een overzichtelijke bladspiegel - mooi programma

I like the app even tho it cost money I have fun doing that thank you for creating it

My old viewer died and I needed a new viewer on my iPhone for my GEDCOM file. Uploading the GEDCOM file is easy. The author will respond to your question(s) very timely. BTW, my GEDCOM file is 13 years old and an older format. This app read the file with no problems.

Excellent tree app, for my iPhone and iPad. Professionally done and very easy to use. I've never had any problems with it, yet it continues to be updated and improved regularly. Great tech support.😃👏 Beautiful update ! Thanks.

Been using it for years. Can’t thank you enough for your making it available. PS: Operator error is the obvious reason that the few lunkheads didn’t like it. DH Northern Michigan.

One would assume with a $5 app called “GedView”, that viewing gedcom files would be a function of said app. Don’t bother.

2nd attempt to submit a review: much more abbreviated this time. Neither this app store profile nor the gedview web site provide a clear description of what the app actually does. The gedview app doesn't operate directly off the ged file. Instead, it converts the content of your ged into a new database, then no longer uses the original ged file. In the process of conversion, it dropped the middle name field content of my ged file, leaving the new database with ambiguous, corrupted data with first names and surnames, only. Since there's no log file created nor warnings issued about dropped or ignored data, It is impossible to know what else is ignored by the attempt to translate the ged file. It was a waste of $5 just to find out its limitations. The resulting database is worthless and can't be trusted with my ged files. I've deleted the app. Just get a good iOS-based family tree app like MobileFamilyTree that handles multiple versions of ged file formats for import and it provides a rich functional interface with FamilySearch's global genealogy database. it is functionally much, much more robust.

I created my family tree on my pc using Family Historian. I was looking for an app to transfer it to my iPhone. I found Ged View and it is exactly what I was looking for. I was amazed at all the options for uploading my tree. Since my computer and phone are on the same home network, I choose to upload the files directly from computer to phone. It worked flawlessly! I couldn’t believe it but all 1487 people were there with all the family links in place. All 647 photographs were there and properly linked. Now I have my family tree in my pocket with photographs. I am very happy! The only reason I didn’t give five stars is because of one flaw I found. When I am looking at a photo and rotate my phone to horizontal, it skips to a different photo. I hope they fix that.

Number one issue: this app does not have a tree view, just a list view. I bought and downloaded this app to allow me to view and edit GEDCOM files so I wouldn't have to completely reconstruct a part of my family tree in order to share it without exposing more than just one branch. Unfortunately, this app does not allow for trimming branches, you have to go in and delete families (actually, one couple and their children) one at a time or remove people individually. I may as well start a new tree from scratch and reenter everything! This app is utterly worthless.

This is an easy app very complete to add family members. The developer was super fast responding a problem I encounter and extremely efficient showing a video how to fix it. Definitely the best family tree app.
