Ancestrify reads your ancestry from the raw DNA file you already have. Upload the export from your testing company, or paste your Global25 coordinates, and receive a report built on published ancient DNA. THREE REPORTS Ancient Ancestry The ancestral peoples your DNA comes from, era by era, from the first farmers to the Middle Ages, in plain words. Built with qpAdm, the method of published ancient DNA studies, against the Allen Ancient DNA Resource. Every model is reviewed and approved by a person before it reaches you, and every figure behind it is there for anyone who wants to check. Four depths, from a first model to the most thorough search. Ancestry Map Your mix of ancient peoples and your closest populations across six eras, measured with Global25 coordinates against more than 1,500 curated populations. Your mix runs on a calculator our analyst builds around your own coordinates, approved by a person. Every era shows the populations it used and the ones it set aside. Notable matches are included. Ancient Matches The individual ancient people you share stretches of DNA with: where they were found, when they lived, and where their DNA sits along your chromosomes. IN THE APP - Order a report and follow it from upload to delivery, and add haplogroups or Fast compute while it is being made. - While your report is made, meet the peoples who lived in the lands you named. - Read every report in full: eras, sources, maps, haplogroups and the evidence behind each model. - Play your narrated ancestry story on the map, chapter by chapter. - Download your report's film in high resolution and save it to Photos. - Share a card of any era. - Get one notification when a report is ready, and nothing else. - Open a raw DNA file straight from Files or Mail. HOW IT WORKS Every report is a one-time purchase. There is no subscription. Your raw DNA file is used for your report only, is never sold or shared for research, and can be deleted with your account at any time from the Account tab. Ancestrify is an independent service and is not affiliated with any DNA testing company.

Disability Wiki is a free, community-built guide to disability rights, benefits, and crisis support β€” created by and for disabled people, allies, and advocates. It works offline from the moment you install it, so the information you need is there when connection isn't. WORKS WITHOUT A SIGNAL Every crisis page β€” hotline numbers, abuse and safety resources, emergency planning β€” is saved on your device. No connection, no data, no account required. When you're online, the app keeps its crisis information current on its own. CRISIS HELP, TWO TAPS AWAY β€’ A Crisis button is on every screen β€” one tap to hotlines and immediate-help resources. β€’ Long-press the app icon for quick actions: crisis help, hotlines, and abuse support, straight from your home screen. β€’ Global crisis hotlines organized by region and situation. SEARCH THAT WORKS OFFLINE Find any page β€” benefits, rights, housing, crisis β€” instantly, even with no connection. WHAT'S INSIDE β€’ Benefits: SSI, SSDI, and how to apply, in plain language β€’ Rights & laws: the ADA, Fair Housing Act, IDEA, and how to file a complaint β€’ Crisis & safety: hotlines, abuse and neglect resources, emergency preparedness β€’ Housing, healthcare, community, and disability history and culture β€’ Available in English and Spanish PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No tracking. No ads. The app collects nothing about you. Reading a crisis page shouldn't cost you your privacy. ALWAYS CURRENT Crisis numbers and key figures are verified against primary sources, and corrections reach the app automatically β€” you don't have to wait for an update or even notice it happened. "Nothing About Us Without Us." This is a living resource, built in the open.
