This looked brilliant at the beginning, and if you have a tree with not too much going on sideways then it's probably fine. But once you start adding sideways groups it becomes very difficult because rather than trying to display everything it just gives up and collapses all but one descendancy line. If you expand another line it just closes the one you were looking at. Infuriating, I gave up in the end and created a spreadsheet from scratch which is miles better.

Latest release has ruined it! If you are on an old version DON'T UPGRADE! 3.3.0 is rubbish! I've spent the last year happily connecting records to hundreds of people and fixing errors others made. But this new version completely ruined the record comparison function. Seriously unusable now. I'm looking for a way to revert to an earlier version or I'll be deleting the app. Another feature that no one wanted or asked for ruins it for countless volunteers. Such a waste.

Very easy to use, add details and information, photographs. No adverts, very few notifications so that you're not being spammed. Amazing considering that is always free. Great for collaboration. Its good to have a separate, private tree in addition to this shared tree, but because it is shared there are others adding information.
