Build your family tree. Frame the result. Family Tree Studio is the elegant way to compose your family on an infinite canvas and export a print-ready poster. No records to dig through, no subscription. Just a finished piece worth keeping. BUILD IT YOUR WAY Drop relatives onto a freeform canvas. Drag to arrange, pinch to zoom. Add parents, children, partners and siblings, and watch new cards and their connecting lines appear the instant two people are linked. Prefer things neat? Turn on auto-arrange and the whole tree tidies itself. Prefer full control? Turn it off and place every card by hand. MAKE IT BEAUTIFUL Switch between themes and card styles and watch the entire tree update at once, cards, lines and all. Every choice is designed with the same restrained, heritage feel, so the result looks composed rather than clip-art. Crown your poster with a tasteful crest: a religious symbol or a country flag, placed at the top. Give it a custom title that reads like the cover of something you would keep. EXPORT A POSTER, NOT A SCREENSHOT When it is ready, export a real print file. Choose A4 or A3, portrait or landscape, as PDF or high-resolution PNG at 300 DPI, composed for print from the ground up. Send it to a local print shop or your own printer, frame it, and hand it down. MANAGE MANY TREES Keep separate trees for different branches of the family, each on its own canvas, each ready to become its own poster. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your family stays on your device. No account required to start, no data harvested, no ads. ONE PRICE, YOURS FOREVER Family Tree Studio is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. Start free, and unlock unlimited people and full-quality export once, forever. No monthly fee, no renewal, no surprises. Start growing your tree today. Every family has a story worth framing.
