Your family is more than names and dates. Family Tree* helps you bring the people, stories, memories and discoveries behind your family history together in one place. Build a beautiful interactive family tree, preserve what you know about the people in it, and use powerful Research tools when there is more to discover.
Whether you are starting with yourself and your parents or already know generations of family history, Family Tree makes genealogy visual, personal and approachable.
BUILD YOUR FAMILY TREE:
Start with one person and grow your tree naturally. Add parents, children, partners, siblings and extended relatives while Family Tree organizes the connections. Explore generations visually, tap a person to focus, pinch and pan, or use simple zoom controls to see the details or the bigger picture.
Add photos, names, birth and death information, places and other details about each person's life. Record approximate dates when history is uncertain, without turning them into exact facts.
RESEARCH YOUR FAMILY HISTORY:
When you reach something you do not know, ask Research. Family Tree can investigate public sources, follow possible leads and return structured findings with sources and citations where available. Research is built around evidence, not automatic answers. Possible matches, conflicting information and unanswered questions remain research until you decide what to do with them.
Nothing discovered through Research automatically changes your family tree.
Useful clues from one investigation can also be carried into another, helping you gradually work through more difficult family-history questions.
PRESERVE MEMORIES:
Keep photographs, documents, stories and other pieces of family history and connect them with the people they belong to. Over time, your tree becomes more than a chart. It becomes a personal archive of your family.
FAMILY TREE INCLUDES:
• Interactive family trees with unlimited generations
• Parents, children, partners, siblings and extended relationships
• Photos and detailed information for each person
• Birth and death details, including approximate dates and places
• Pinch, pan and one-tap zoom controls
• Evidence-based Research using public sources
• Sources, citations and Research clues
• Memories for photos, documents and stories
• Private Research history
• Family tree import tools
PRIVATE BY DESIGN:
Your family history is personal. Research is initiated by you and uses relevant family information only when needed for the investigation you request. Research results are private to you, and your family information is not made publicly searchable by Family Tree.
*All features described above require a Family Tree Premium subscription.
FAMILY TREE PREMIUM:
You can begin building your family before deciding whether to upgrade. Premium unlocks additional family members and trees, Research, Memories, import tools and other Premium features. Weekly and Yearly subscriptions are available. Where eligible, Weekly may include a free trial. Exact pricing, trial eligibility and renewal terms are shown before purchase.
Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Subscriptions can be managed or canceled in your Apple Account settings.

Start with the people you know. Follow the clues. Preserve the stories you find along the way. Download now and start building your own Family Tree!
The app is available for free, but almost every desired feature within the app comes with a price tag. For instance, you can only add a limited number of family members before being required to start paying. Additionally, if you want to conduct in-depth research on your family, you have to make a payment. It would be more straightforward for the app to have an initial download fee since the free version offers limited functionality. The app seems to heavily favor paid users, making it difficult to enjoy the full experience without spending money. If you're not willing to invest any money, DONT GET THIS APP!(I gave it 5 stars so you can see this)

I am a Roots Magic user but I have been looking for an app to make stylish looking family charts that I can print myself. This app looks fantastic in the App Store. The graphics are very pretty and the screenshots appear to be exactly what I’m looking for. A simple but graphically interesting family tree to include with photo albums and other family keepsakes for when they get passed down.Unfortunately, there is no free access to try out the app before signing up for a subscription. Despite the fact that the Subscription button in the App Store indicates a free month trial—Once you download the app, there are a couple of cutesy animated intro screens that really don’t provide much information. The 3rd screen is an offer to sign up for a 3 day free trial which then automatically becomes a $4.99/week subscription. You can’t skip past this. With the cute animation, you’d think there would be a short tutorial video so you could at least see how it works before signing up for a subscription.I don’t like to give out info before seeing if the app is even something that I’d like and a 3 day trial seems like barely enough time to learn a few rudimentary functions much less get a real feel for how it works unless you have hours a day to spend working with it. I can see giving it a try, deciding not to continue with the subscription and then being forever inundated with emails begging me to subscribe.
Absolutely the BEST ancestry search!!!

I started on a whim researching my ancestors, and I am SO hooked! It’s been less than 10 days and I’ve already found ancestors from the 1600’s!! To beAble to see actual photos of my 4th great grandmother is amazing. I’ve alway been told I was named after my maternal grandmother and I have hated my name for 63 years!! I was floored when I discovered that wasn’t my grandmother’s name!! After discovering my great great great grandmother I realized that each woman had changed the spelling each generation! So technically I AM named after her and the other 3 ladies. I am now appreciative of it!

I been using Family Tree for many years and have had no desire to ever change, I would recommend Family Tree to anyone and I mean it. Two other men in my family who both have some serious education used it before me mostly because when they started using it it was DOS. This JCofLDS software is powerful and impressive and now is online for anyone and one might be surprised by opening and signing up and in that your family just might appear before your eyes. I’m completely satisfied. Good luck.
