Quick Family Tree 4+

SIMPLE and FAST at the fundamentals.

I married into a family with a ton of new cousins and aunts and uncles, and already wasn’t great at mentally keeping track of my own extended family. I didn’t need a genealogy service with a family tree maker tacked on. I’ve looked for an app before that could put together a simple family tree, FAST, that would provide a great visual tree layout. I finally found it in this app. Sitting down with my parents and my wife I was able to throw together a easy to navigate family tree VERY quickly that gave me the fundamentals I needed - who’s related to who and how. You CAN add some birthdays, death dates, and extra info if you want, but that’s not really the strength of this app. It’s about being fast and streamlined. If you don’t expect it to be something it’s not, this app is great.

Thank you for your review. I'm happy that you liked this app.

Complaint

I've been using this family history tracking app for over a year and a half, but I've encountered some issues. The main problem is that whenever I try to update a family member's profile, any information I had entered about their date of death, including the month and year, disappears. This forces me to retype all that death detail data, which is a real hassle. To prevent losing that critical information, I now have to maintain a duplicate record of each family member's date of death in a separate app.

As for potential improvements, I think adding an obituary feature and a timeline to record important life events like marriages, births, birth location residences, death, and death location would be very helpful. Additionally, a section to visualize connections and relations between family members would be a valuable addition. Overall, I find the app quite useful, but a few updates could really enhance its functionality and make it even better for tracking my family's history.

Smile and easy to use but could have a few improvements

I love this app - thank you for making it free and very easy to use. In a few days I sat with my grams and was able to input quite bit of information about a large family. I love that you don’t have to subscribe or sync with a service. The drag feature is awesome - especially when one needs to edit entries and lines. I love how the tree is very clear and the build is simple very to do.

I love the “capture” and export feature but it would be great if we could also export into a pdf file and if the files could have higher quality pixels. It would also be great if there was a possibility to export all data so it would be saved not just on an iPad and the program but a computer or cloud for safe keeping.

It would good to add fields for; place of birth, place of death death, lives in, occupation ...

I love how one can select who’s family line to see and how for how many generations but it would be super awesome and cool if it was possible to choose to see all the layers with cousins on all the sides ( maybe some kind of a layer feature) ALL the entries of the family all at once.

Oh! If possible to add birthday reminders .... or being able to export birthday info into a calendar would also be super awesome.
