Brilliantly easy. But it needs an export or print facility (.pdf). Easily worth a one-off payment when that becomes available. In the meantime, maybe the developer could set up a 'buy me a coffee' page, so those who want to can easily make a donation. Free apps are great, but we're all getting too used to accepting masses of work from other people who deserve to be paid. Oh, I just found out it has .png image capture... better than nothing.

Has been pretty good at helping me keep track of the family trees for my characters in a project my friends and I are working on, but it does have it's issues. Biggest downside only comes with it being used for a fictional world with a much different calendar meaning I can't put in birthdates and death dates. It's okay for now I guess. Might see if any others are more customizable. There's a lot of limitations, but it's easy enough to use and I don't have to watch ads with EVERY person I add.

Nice with a good user interface. Some suggestions for improvement 1. Capitalise names automatically 2. Desperately needs higher resolution export and/or pdf. 3. Would like to be able to add a sibling without having to add unknown parents. 4. Display needs to be able to fully expand the tree showing all people. 5. When zoomed in it is difficult to drag the display around as it always wants to move people icons. I would happily pay a small fee to get rid of the ads but this option not available.

I wasted a whole lot of time with this app. Frustrating how branches disappear and reappear, but what I really found frustrating was to finish my tree only to find that it can't be exported as a PDF or any file type easily viewable to others, which was the whole reason for doing it. I now have an unshareable tree on my phone and I had to watch ads to make it. Willing to edit review of someone can point out that I'm missing something.

This is a very nice app that is easy to use. Not difficult to edit, add children, spouses etc. My only challenge is the exporting of the data. One can only take shot of a small area of the work because of the aspect ratio. Everything blurs up if you try to widen the area to capture more details, rendering the output useless. Can this be worked on so a larger area can be exported or captured? Thank you

This is a very good app. However the export function does not work. Even with small Family Trees it only closes the app. Edit : I just updated the app and tried to export a small Family Tree, unfortunately it still respond the same. I hope that it at least works for others. New Edit : A small suggestion, having the possibility switch to a Dark Mode would be nice.

Really easy to use interface than any other family tree making app I've seen. I am able to simultaneously enter data within minutes.Such a good app. It is quick as it says in the title and has the necessary features you need. But I would really like to see if you can update it so we can see the complete view of the family tree we have created. Currently it only involves seeing a small portion of the tree.This includes showing cousins directly. So we can take print of it in a single chart.Thanks

It's fairly easy to use and *very* helpful for making family trees with. Only kinda-bad thing is that it can only display direct descendents/ancestors of the currently selected individual. (For example, when I select myself, I can see all of my siblings except for my half-sister. But if I select our father, it shows both of us, because we're both his kids.) Just give it a quick try. Don't like it? Uninstall it. 5 minutes of your life are gone. Like it? Now you've found a great app to use!

Works alright, but damn is the rigidity annoying. Like Alex Berg said, the app collapses the connections that aren't directly attached to the person you're working on. Also, you can't organize things in your own way, because it pushes all relationships to the right; makes multiple marriages and the like painful to organize. Also trying to add a third parent (stepparent) was frustrating.

I use it to manage my characters families for my stories, it helps out a lot with showing the massive and confusing family trees! Its awsome that the devs actually listen to the complaints and feed back! Though inwould love to see a feature that allows you to show the parents but show they were never married. Overall its a great ans easy to use app!!!

I haven't used for too long but so far it's been great! I have only experienced one problem so far which has to do with having multiple ex partners that have children of there own. For example if I have one person and that person married some one and had a kid but then gets a divorce and has a new partner it won't let me connect them as ex partners and current. Sorry if that made no sense but I would like to see an update fixing that (:

its an okay app, i would love to have a "devorced" option. at the moment its really only useable for an ideal family... mom, dad, kids and grandparents. my family is really mixed up with other families. tl;dr I have two dads and two mom's from devorce and i cant show that with this app. edit: so you can add more parents! still not a perfect app but vastly better than what i was using before.

I loved this app, until a recent update removed my ability to type, which kinda destroys the whole functionality of the thing. Please fix this, as the thought of re-entering all my data again is rather daunting. Update: By copying the entire tree then deleting the original, I'm able to type again for some reason. Still kinda annoying, but I'll still give it 4 stars as it's a very good app otherwise.

Definitely easy and quick to use! Wish siblings went to the left rather than right. For example, if you give a husband a sister, the sister moves to the right of the wife? When it would look better and more coherent for the sister to go to the left of her brother. I wish there was more flexibility in placement. Also wish there was a way to add single parents, but deleting one parent unlinks them from their kid.

This app is great for family get-togethers. It's easy to add people so I get a picture of how the people at a gathering are related; I then remember them more easily next time. I really like the ability to add a picture for each person. I'm taking one star off because there's no cloud sync. You can export and import data, but you have to do this manually every time. It would be great if I could automatically sync it with Dropbox or Google Drive.

Amazing! You can click and choose gender of your person, you can have same gender couples, or one with no gender! It allows birth and death dates, a pic, and many more. I just have one thing you many wanna add to the app, a gallery. So we can have multiple photos in one person thing so we can go through and just look at that person's photo. I just think it would be cool to add! Overall, great app!

I like it a lot. Super easy to use. Exactly what it says. Quick, easy, uncomplicated. Busted out a 50 person tree in under an hour. Including note-checking. There ARE ads, but they're not intrusive and their presence keeps this incredibly useful tool free. So no biggie. Personally, the project that I need a tree for takes a little more detail than this app provides. But! My only issues are very specific tiny things that probably won't apply to most people and really aren't dealbreakers.

Great, amazing, easy to use. The only problem is quite annoying and personally very bothersome, you can only move a person if they have no links to anyone else which makes awkward lines across areas. Also the fact that you can't just add one parent is very annoying. Otherwise it is an amazing app!

EDIT: I FIGURED OUT YOU CAN JUST EXPORT IMPORT TO THE LIST, THANK YOU KING. I love your app!!! If you are still working on this, is there any way possible you could consider adding an option to duplicate trees from the main menu? I have a family tree full of photos and I want to make a copy of the same tree with different photos but don't want to have to manually do them all? It's okay if not, still a great app that has helped my writing tremendously!

This is really great app, just as advertised. Though there are some issues I have with it. One the placement of couples are fixed (you can only move them into two places and can't adjust the spacing) my second issues is the the "vertical" option is locked as well (this wouldn't be as big of an issue if spacing/placement of individual people/couples was changeable) The third thing that bothers me is the limit seems set at 2024 (I'm using this for a book so having a limited year is unhelpful.)
