  • Great! But..

    The app is great! But, I do think that there is room for improvement. On the app you should make it so that on horizontal view you’re able to see more than just one branch off your 2nd great grandparents. Like being able to view several branches at a time.

    I made an in-app purchase of a monthly subscription using Apple pay. Neither the app nor the website show that I have a subscription but I was charged.

    I use this app constantly. I love it. There are some weirdly persistent bugs though: - I frequently get hint icons that appear on people on my tree, but when I tap on them I get a message saying there are no hints. - I frequently get parent suggestions that appear above people on my tree, but when I tap on them the window pops up and then quickly disappears. ???
  • Incorrect information

    The application doesn’t have reliable information to designate the correct DNA attributes based on parents and actual family tree. More arguably it only recognize Jewish as ethnic religion group without recognizing other ethnic religions which makes it totally unreliable, if they wants to have one religion ethnic group why the rest are not considered? And how they would know Jewish person where over years many converts to and from Judaism to other religions ?!!

    The app I pay for rarely works and the interface is the worst among the apps I frequent.
  • False advertising

    This app and website do not actually verify information especially with hints. When you ask for help it says you have to do your own research to verify information even tho it’s supposed to use census records. I will never buy the DNA kit and I will never buy another month because it will not guarantee accurate information and says to use external data sources. That is not what they advertised years ago or now. If I have to do my own research anyway I’ll find a much more reliable source then ancestry. DO NOT RECOMMEND ZERO STARS!
  • Way too buggy.

    This app is really awesome in a lot of ways but for the amount of money you charge for subscriptions, it’s absolutely ridiculous how buggy the app is. It’s crashing constantly. Choses to just not work, and overall is just no an efficient app. If you’re going to charge me 40$ a month for the only useful parts of the app then you should at least make sure your app is running smoothly.
