Ratings and reviews

Very visually enjoyable and easy to use app. The web page works fine but this is so much easier to navigate and you can access all your info with a tap of a button instead of having to go through the internet and find the website and login every time. Absolutely recommend the app if you're going to be looking at this more than once, it is so fun and simple to access!

The app didn't work the first day. I had to log in off Google. It did start to work the next day. I also did not like the way the results were given. What I mean is they combined certain results. British & Irish were grouped together. There are results like broadly European, which all It means is European, without any further elaboration. There's also a section where it says what physical features u most likely have. Almost every one of their guesses were wrong. Biggest waist of 70$ ever!

The initial data from the test kit is interesting but the app itself is a bit clunky. It often looks like it is going to offer something specific to me but ends up just being general information about a topic which might as well have been a link to Wikipedia. The sort function on the relatives list is weird, it only seems to sort some relatives not all.
