Ratings and reviews

Great concept. Unfortunately for me it freezes up and won't let me move around. (Free version). I don't want to pay whatever the upgrade price is if it's still going to do that. It doesn't say what the price is, and I'm not clicking "upgrade" until I see a price. It won't open my file at all after the update Where do I find ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT?

Take my money! I have been looking for a way to map my ancestry from a gedcom for ages and found nothing but awful programmes. You've created something PERFECT. It's smart as Google is about place names allowing for dozens in variations in how they're recorded, and the FEATURES you've built into it like ancestral migration or view different generational levels are smart and intuitive and fascinating. As an app developer myself, I can appreciate the work you've put into this. Deserves more ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Really like this style of presentation. It's concise, neat and handy. You can see easily where gaps are in your research. The Gedstore idea is a useful touch, too. I look forward to further development.
