Don't waste your money

App doesn't work and has shown an error message from the first time I opened it.
DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY.

Ugh

Well that was a waste of money.

Worthless

After six generations, it won't let you add anymore. It also assumes you want to start with the oldest person and go down, rather than the current generation and go backwards. This is a piece of crap. Don't buy it

Very Poor!

This really is not a particularly good App. Firstly, the layout is illogical and secondly there appears to be no obvious way of allowing for second or further marriages (where the spouse is deceased) and offspring. It is also too easy to accidentally change the root record requiring a bit of hinting in large family trees. Certainly not worth the money, more of a beta type product.

What is this?

Awful. Just awful. No thought has gone into the data fields at all.

Have to build from earliest relative first

I found this no good as I want to add on my earlier relatives as I find them but you have to start with the earliest. Found it hard to use.

Really great app!!

I used this app to create a very detailed family tree that encompassed 17 pages. The app worked great!! It is very easy to navigate and I had no problem printing. When I was done, I emailed each page to myself in a PDF so I can now do what I want with it.

I did initially have a problem with the app completely kicking me out when I entered data. I emailed a developer who was great to work with to correct the problem. I'm using an IPad Pro. It's so new that a few kinks had to be worked out. She let me know this and emailed me when the fix went in. It worked great from that point. If you encounter any problems I recommend going this route as well.

Again, great app. Highly recommend.

Useless, waste of money

Difficult to use and collapses every time I use it whenever I make an info selection. A ripoff at $4.99.

Nor even a twig maker

In theory a good idea, in reality absolutely rubbish. The tools do not work, it keeps shifting the cells and I have wasted time and money on this awful hard to use app. Do not waste yours.

Buggy as h*ll

I bought this. I paid $6 and this thing shuts down and deletes any work I've done anytime I try to click the "question mark" to enter in divorce information. I tried contacting app support and it went to an "error not found page." Needless to say-I'm really angry.
