My Family Tree App Reviews
Too simple
Good but too simple… If you have anything more then three generation it gets unclear…
Dont waste your money on this program. Items which you have created move around and do not stay in spot. Worst $14.99 ive ever spent. Wish I could get my money back!
i thought that it is very simple and usefull app! but its veeeery simple, you cannot organise all of your relatives in one line to make all of their names and surnames be visible, just because creatro didnt take care about this function!!! every time i want to link childs to the parents, this app moves the family to whatever place it wants!!!! its very uncomfortable to work in this app!! please creators change something!! because i have made a big job, and now i dont know jow to continue it!!!!!
A Waste Of Time And Money
Do not waste your time or money on this application.
Pros: Simplicity, ease of use Cons: A lot of bugs (i.e. The Exploding Tree) Their website has no customer support option to let them know about the bugs. Note to developer: If your intent was to provide a light weight app then your heading in the right direction. You just need to fix your bugs and your website. So, since there is no customer service option, here are some things Id like to see fixed: -"The Exploding Tree" I was attempting to create a separate tree next to my main tree. ALL the lines "retracted" and my relatives icons were bouncing all over the place. No Joke. I got mad then I laughed then I got mad again once I realized Ive forgot to save my progress. -Auto-save, refer to story above -Fix "Birth Year", I add birth year like it asks i.e. 1900 then it changes it to "Saturday, January 1, 1900" which does not fit into box. -The bouncing bubble effect is a bit silly, Id get rid of it or allow the option to "stick them in place" -Allow me to change the color of the background. I use this app on a secondary monitor while I do my research on my main monitor. White is a bit bright, black might be easier on the eyes. - Add double-click to edit bubbles, and what is "reload" on right-click? -The "Add Person" button doesnt just place a new bubble, it shoots it out causing it to bounce all over the place. meaning you have to wait for it to slow down before you can grab it and place it where you would like. So if you have a big screen, imagine how annoying that could be. Does the developer have a weird sense of humor? Who knows. But its annoying. In conclusion, Im really glad this app doesnt have a million bells and whistles when I only use it to compliment my online research. With that said, I hope to see an update soon.
The ability to move people around and make adjustments to the connections is not easily done. It is not easy to see how to make adjustments to connections that you made, and there is limited information and assistance available.
This program did not do any of the things it advertised after I downloaded it. It had no button to print or save as a PDF or edit. The branches to the tree would not stay put and would tangle so that it would become unintelligible.
Great but won’t save...
Saving errors everywhere…when I told it to save it gave me an error message. Not worth $15. I have to redo my entire tree now :(
wont print or link more than two children
dont buy this!
This app is very hard to understand. Adding and connecting is awkward and the additions keep moving from place to place. Then to add to my troubles it would not save. The message does not indicate why it could not be saved and yet it says the information entered will not stay unless it is saved… What is happening??? I just wasted $19.99
Crappy
It looks like someone learning Obj-C built this as learning project. Please don’t waste your money.
