  • Needs software updates

    By zzz60
    I have been using this app for years. Software and bugs have not improved at all. So many problems
  • If only I could put a negative star!

    By Kbossa
    I got this app when it first came out many many years ago loved the fact I could pull it up and add new things that I HAD RESEARCHED! I spent many hours and many years doing research,bought the DNA kits for several family members. I uploaded sooooo many old photos that were mine NOT there’s . Now I can’t even look at my hints without them wanting money…mind you theses were things I uploaded not even found in there data base! Now I have no idea what happened. I can’t even find my tree only thing that is left is my husband’s tree. Alllllll that work and years gone! I’m to exhausted to even think about doing all over again.

  • Glitchy app

    By E.Moral
    i did the dna test and it’s okay and all but this app is so glitchy and nothing has been done, this app is full of bugs and it’s just awful!
  • Changed the agreement

    By Jlam74
    When I purchased my dna kit I could see who I was related to and on which side. Within the last two years all the benefits of purchasing the kit are gone. I have to pay monthly to see my relatives.
  • Catagories

    By Smith-N
    When wanting to see anything, you change now. No longer able to see anything, not even basic information. Like shared hits.
  • New version

    By Xavier's Grandma
    I do not like the new, 2025, version. How can I go back to older one (17). All the work, time, and maintenance done in previous version is not in the newer one. Please respond with how to revert to previous version Thank you
  • Thank You

    By No Yeet!!
    I just wanted to say thank you to this app so much. I wasn’t close with my father’s side but my grandma passed in 2001. I only had visual memories in my mind of her but no photos at all. Tonight I logged in and couldn’t help but cry. Some kind of way it was a picture of her. I feel like this is only the beginning but thank you so much from the bottom of my heart
  • Crashes way too often

    By SilverSoul25
    The info available is obviously great but this app crashes so consistently you’d think that was its actual purpose. When you’d rather go sit at a PC to access the same stuff, you can’t say you’re using a good app.
