Decent app, fit for purpose
I’ve found the app works well for the intended purpose, particularly adding GPS with photos while at a cemetery.
I’d like a feature added to filter memorials within a cemetery by plot information, as some of the cemetery’s I frequent are quite large and being able to narrow the field to a given section and sort by row/grave would make adding information more efficient than searching each name individually

Great app, one minor change request
I have used this app and added GPS coordinates as well as memorials. It is truly a great app overall. My only request would be to allow the choice of which mapping app (specifically Google Maps) the Map It opens in. Otherwise, great app and very worth having! Update October 2026: Please return the photo upload default to Grave instead of unchecked. All of my work I do is through the app and adding the step of having to select a grave photo is extremely annoying as I upload photos to existing memorials or memorials I just created!

Response from developer
Hello. We have passed your suggestion on to our site development team for consideration.
Great app, but
I would love to see the accessibility added to individuals’ graves so I can add children and not just parents.
Some App Issues
I am using this app on my iPad, and I am not able to pin people, and whenever I try to paste something in the memorial search tab, the app closes on itself
Can’t Log in w Ancestry
My Ancestry and FindAGrave are linked, and it’s impossible for me to log in this way on the app. It takes me to a blank page in my browser.
Love It
I love Find-a-Grave because it is so helpful with tracing ancestries.
Frustrating
Sadly this app is not as user-friendly as it once was! I was unable to search for a family grave which previously was a much easier activity! Not happy!

A treasure trove
It never ceases to amaze me how much information is available on Find a Grave. I have solved numerous brick walls with what I found on the memorials. There is no quality control so things need to be verified. But that is a small price to pay for what is available. I’ve had some dealings with the admins. They are all very good at helping you and explaining how things work. I find their professionalism very admirable.

Not good
I thought this would be useful in finding my father's siblings it didn't even list all of them and when I put names in it acts as if they don't exist
Great app
Great app for sharing genealogy information! Very easy to use!
autism.
i have cemetery autism and i love this app more than anything.
Editing and adding something on that app is fun!
I love to add and edit things on Find a Grave.
Love it!!
I use it all the time in my research. I’m very grateful for the program, and those that contribute. Thank you
Slightly disappointed
As I do my research I am seeing many inaccuracies in people’s public recordings on the stones. Discouraging and disrespectful to those at rest in those plots.
GPS navigation
Wow! The new GPS navigation is great! Five stars. I used the updated feature today and it totally rocks! walked right up to the grave site. A huge thank you for the update.
Improvement could help
If I make an update to an individual within a cemetery I’m working on, it takes me all the way back to the start.
I’d like for it to at least take me back To the location in which I was working, or the individual memorial.

Lacks basic functions
Seems odd that users can’t clear recently viewed memorials.
Login with Ancestry does not work
When I click the login with ancestry button, it just opens my browser and downloads an ancestry.txt file. I can log in with ancestry just fine on the website, but the mobile app does not work
Excellent web site and resource for locating grave sites.
Find a Grave has been an incredible resource in helping find grave sites of family and friends. It really becomes an emotional time to research and think about your own ancestors lives as you locate their burial plots. In many cases you likely had no idea what town or state they even lived in, or their family members were, but this site helps bring it all together. Thank you!

Nobody
does anybody even work for this company/program anymore? The tickets don't get responses, no good updates in a decade, there's no support, the GPS is a total mess now. The app has more glitches now than ever before.... all the while the volunteers are actually doing most of the work with the photos and the logging of the data....
