Best Family Tree App for the Money
Best Tree App Ive found. It takes a little while to figure out how to do things in the App as its quite different from the website version; things are in different places and not all there but if youre a dedicated genealogist, then youre probably logical enough to figure out all the workarounds.
Several "bugs" need fixed before it rates 5 stars; sometimes when I try to add an additional spouse to someone, the App closes (minor annoyance). The relationship listed for some Ancestors differs between the Website and the App. A "25th GGF" as listed in the Website version will show as the "3rd GGF of the husband of your 22nd Great Grand Aunt". This is due to marriages among distant cousins etc., but obviously the Website can handle it while the App does not do as well. (Major Annoyance). Worst feature is the "Search" ( bad in the App as well as the Website). Results include many docs that bear no resemblance whatsoever to the criteria you choose or tell you "no results" even when you KNOW there should be. Also, sometimes docs that have multiple people indexed will show up in one persons results but "disappear" when you search the other person later on (example: Death Certs often index 4 people although it will not appear in the search results for a couple of them). In one case, MY marriage certificate showed up in a search for my brother but NOT for me. (Major Annoyance).
