  • Profits over faithful followers.

    In your attempt to make more profit you have made it impossible for those who have spent years building their trees and discovering their families from being able to see the data they have collected. This has made me decide not to buy a membership renewal which I had purchased every February to catch up on new common ancestors and data. If increasing your profit margin is that important then good luck. But in doing so you are chasing away your faithful and often repeat customers.
  • still predatory billing.

    Unacceptable billing and subscription prescribed. 100$ non refundable and i even tried to see if prorating would work. BBB next. My budget was stretched enoughZ

    Many an hour spent researching has been a pleasure. Seeing my grandfather’s signature in records of his marriage to his getting his papers to live in the US is simply so satisfying .
  • Great app for ancestry

    Love the app but two step needs to be disabled. It’s impeding the ability to utilize the app by myself & my sister. We both work together on the the family tree.
  • Matches/features

    I enjoy the app a lot, and have had very few issues. My biggest complaint is that I have several matches who appear on the website, however the app cannot find them at all. My last complaint is things becoming locked behind paywalls that were previously free and included with the DNA test purchase. Otherwise I enjoy it all around!
  • Once good, now degrading and buggy

    Examples: if you update stats of a person, they don’t update visibly and you have to leave the app, and come back to see them. Searches for women with multiple marriages are useless. Even sometimes just one marriage it doesn’t seem to know how to handle. I have to do manual searches using the same info, and I get entirely different (with usable) results. Recently the bug updates, are creating more bugs. I have one relative with ten children, who have all their stats, and the tree doesn’t show them for all. Very odd. The stats ARE there if I click on them. It seems they are losing control, and algorithms for women with multiple marriages are definitely one they can’t handle.
  • Love it. This app is getting better every day!!!

    Everything that once came with the $100 DNA package is slowly being blocked by paywalls. The mobile layout is becoming less and less user friendly. The app is also very buggy

    And currently still am…. But they took some very important features out on print mode. That ruin a Christmas gift for a family member. I spent over a year working on this tree as a surprise and was ready to print pages …and now I have generic icons for my sources . Totally ruin the effect. If someone says they never had that feature, just so you know this wasn’t my first time printing and I have receipts. Regardless I paid for a service from ancestry with its features and they snuck the features out. Soon ancestry … my subscription renewal is coming and I am left wondering after all this time should I count my losses with you. And end it. :( I can’t express how hard I worked on this and you stole my ability to show off the work as a gift.
