A private network for one family at a time: your tree, your moments, and the dates that matter. No public profiles, no advertising, no strangers.
KagTuk is a private family network. One tree, one family, and nobody else — no public profiles, no strangers to follow, no advertising and no tracking.
BUILD THE TREE
Start with yourself and add one relative at a time: parents, siblings, a spouse, children. Someone already on the tree can be linked into their existing place instead of being entered twice. Every entry can be invited to join and claim it as their own. This is a graph, not a list — half siblings, second marriages, step and adopted relationships, and partners who are no longer together all have a shape here.
SEE IT AS A MAP
The lineage view folds a large family so that five generations stay readable on a phone; the whole-tree view fits everyone inside the frame. Couples sit together, each set of siblings shares a colour, and a dashed line marks a half sibling. Tap anyone to re-centre the tree on them and read their branch.
A FEED ONLY YOUR FAMILY SEES
Post moments — photographs, video, a few words — to your family up to twenty generations out, or narrow the audience to one branch, one circle, or one person. Stories last a day. Every read is authorised on the server against the tree itself, so there is no public timeline to find and nothing is ever recommended to a stranger.
THE DATES THAT MATTER
Birthdays, anniversaries and the dates you create yourself arrive on one calendar, each carrying the face of the person it belongs to. Keep a wishlist so that a gift is never a guess.
FAMILY CHATS
The whole family hall, a circle, or one person.
YOU DECIDE WHO SEES WHAT
• Sign in with a six-digit email code, a password, or Sign in with Apple.
• Hide any relative: their moments, stories, comments and messages leave every one of your views, and they cannot open a conversation with you.
• Report a moment, comment, story, message or profile from its ⋯ menu. Reports are reviewed within 24 hours.
• An entry you added can be removed until that person joins. Once they join, only they can change or remove their own profile.
• Download everything you have shared as a single file, or delete your account outright, from Settings.
PRIVACY BY CONSTRUCTION
No advertising. No analytics. Nothing sold, nothing shared. Photographs and video are re-encoded on your phone before they are uploaded, so the location written into the file never leaves the device. Deleting your account takes effect at once: the account, the sign-in, the photographs, the posts and the messages are destroyed, and the tree keeps only the name, the dates and the relationships so that your family's history is not rewritten around you.
Free. Nothing to buy, nothing to subscribe to.
Your family, one tree.
• The family tree puts the people who matter most first: your partner, children, grandchildren, parents and grandparents, then your brothers and sisters, across six generations, always at a size you can read. Couples stay together, and the tree looks the same on your phone and on the web.
• Reach your family twenty generations deep, with generation filters on Home.
• Home welcomes the newest members of your lineage.
• Notifications are grouped: Today, Yesterday, This week and earlier.
• Remove a moment from your own feed.
• Adding a parent offers to add both parents together.
• "Same person?" shows who and why before you merge two entries.
• Deleting a highlight now works, and tells you the stories inside go too.
• Confirm it's you before deleting your account or changing your password, and sign out everywhere from Settings.
• Settings opens on your Account; every button answers across its whole area.
• Many fixes, and a faster, safer service.
