Learning

Very interesting, look forward to learning more.

Its a great back up to computer

Its great to put in mobile pics from phone pics and Facebook! Also, wonderful to show whip out and show anyone what your working on in genealogy!!!

So stupid

This app is so boring it does not even tell you your family

Helpful research

Initially I was outraged at the price to add the research feature, but have been truly amazed at the documents available online, especially census docs. I have really been able to improve my tree. Also like the ability to add from other sources, though it may not be an approved method of research.

Heritage

It is user friendly, love that you can email other people that have the same relatives.

Holds Back

Overall, I like the app. Its easy to add people into it and the system seems to be efficient at locating names in historical records. That said, I am paying A LOT OF MONEY for access to those historical records, but I am not allowed to do anything other than LOOK at the records that are found. The records are as important as the family tree is and so we should be able to print and/or save those records in PDF format to share with other family members. Bottom line is that I am paying a ton of money for half of a service.

Pay to Use

This app is junk. It is easy to add your information. This gives your information to their data base. But if you want to get access to their information, you must pay. Plus when there is new information listed and you just try to just confirm it, you get an error message. Why would I pay money to an app that doesnt even work in the free mode. A waste of time.

My Heritage App

My Heritage is my primary source for genealogy information. The app works well in conjunction with my on line tree

Rip off

It useless unless you pay a huge subscription fee ($129-179 per year). What a total rip off.

Expensive but worth it

If you are serious about your tree its worth the extra money to to be able to add relatives trees. That not only gives you more relatives but adds info about the ones you have.

Too Expensive

Takes a little while to figure out, but works well. A full subscription isnt needed if you have complete information.

Worthwhile investment, save effort! Get fast results.

Their data bank is the real deal. I was Limited in just knowing one great grand fathers name - never the less, it, within a few days, catapulted me back 10 generations to before 1630! Its our luck that this ancestor hunt is tended by so many contributors - you might be late to the game but if you want fast and fun results - Do it. And expensive? Yeah but split the cost with other family members. Its a fun way to bring life to the party. You can google individual names and get more fleshed out details.

Great for family members who are from Prussia

Makes finding my family from Lithuania, Poland, Austria, and the Germany area easier.

Family tree building

Only had this less than a month and already have 39 relatives on the tree. Fantastic!

A very good app

I enjoy using the app. My only suggestion is to make it where we can view our DNA matches

Yippie!!!

This app is SOOOO much better then the alternatives on the App Store. It gives you hints but doesnt make you buy anything like ancestry but you do have to put them in yourself. Thats the only downfall yet I understand why its there.

Easy to use!

This has been a really easy app to use. It helps me do my family history by finding my family names already in the system and adding them to my tree!

MyHeritage app good

I enjoy this very much. But 2 things would make it better: being able to access results of your DNA test and "pedigree" view of the family tree. The latter is needed at regular website too for ease of navigation.

Awesome research functions

This app makes searching and storing info so simple, easy to use and have found so many family facts so fast. Really enjoying using it.

Nice App

Not as comprehensive as the desktop interface, but is useful for search for a relative, verifying a birthday, etc.
