Folklore is the private family tree you can actually share — build it together with your family over iCloud, with partners, half-siblings, and adoptive ties recorded the way they really are. Build your family tree, record the people who matter, and keep every name, date, story, and photo in one place — stored on your device and synced through your own private iCloud. Your family history is yours alone. We can't see it, and it never lives on our servers. BUILD YOUR TREE - Add parents, partners, children, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and step-relatives - See your whole family in a clean, zoomable tree — hold your iPhone upright and big families run top to bottom, so names stay readable - A family summary shows how many people and generations you've gathered, and your oldest known ancestor - Add life events, places, occupations, and research notes, and color-code people to keep branches clear - A short tour shows how to read each tree style the first time you open it SEE YOUR FAMILY IN NEW WAYS - Family Poster: portraits that fade softly into the page, for your close family or the whole tree, ready to share as an image - Radial chart: one person in the middle, with every descendant spread around them in rings by birth year - Fan chart and a map of the places your family lived - Photos of two people together — partners, parents and children, siblings, and cousins RESEARCH WITH CARE - Mark each date, place, and event as Confirmed, Likely, or a Guess, and see how many sources back it up - Note searches that found nothing, so you never look in the same place twice - Family checkup finds impossible dates, parents who would have been too young or too old, loops, and likely duplicates - Merge two copies of the same person, keeping every relative - The relationship calculator tells you exactly how any two people are related — "second cousin once removed" and more BUILD IT TOGETHER - Invite family through private iCloud sharing — no accounts, no public links, only the people you invite - Everyone you invite can add relatives and fill in details, and changes sync to all of you - Removing someone always comes back to you for approval, so nothing disappears without the owner's say-so - Prefer to keep control? Invite someone view-only and they can still send you suggestions to approve or decline BRING OLD PHOTOS BACK TO LIFE - Restore and enhance faded family photos entirely on your iPhone — repair, de-yellow, sharpen, and brighten - Nothing is ever uploaded; all processing happens on your device KEEP YOUR RESEARCH PORTABLE - Import standard GEDCOM files, including photos, so research you've already done comes with you - Export to GEDCOM or a printable Family Book PDF, with the option to hide the details of people who are still living PRIVATE BY DESIGN - No account, no login, no ads, no tracking - Your tree lives on your device and in your private iCloud FOLKLORE PRO Folklore is free, and a free tree holds up to 40 people. Folklore Pro removes that limit and unlocks: - Inviting family to build the tree with you - The Family Poster, the Radial chart, the fan chart, and the places map - Photos of two people together - On-device photo restoration - Recorded voice stories, and adding relatives by speaking, from an obituary or a link to one, or by scanning a funeral program - GEDCOM export and the printable Family Book PDF - Birthday and anniversary reminders Folklore Pro is available as a one-time Lifetime purchase, or as a monthly or yearly subscription. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings.
