App Overview

FamilySearch Tree is a genealogy app designed to help you discover, preserve, and share your family history. The app lets you build your family tree, add photos and stories, and connect with relatives from anywhere. You can easily search billions of historical records to find ancestors and add them directly to your tree. It's a powerful tool for anyone interested in exploring their roots and creating a lasting family legacy. The app syncs with your free FamilySearch account, so your tree is always up to date across all your devices.

Using the app is straightforward. After you download and install it, you can start by adding yourself and your immediate family. The app suggests potential relatives and historical records through hints, making research much easier. You can view family lines, see timelines of ancestors' lives, and even collaborate with other family members on the same tree. It's perfect for recording memories during family gatherings or conducting research on the go.

You can get the FamilySearch Tree app from the Google Play Store. If the Google Play Store is not available on your device, you can visit the official FamilySearch website to download the latest APK file directly. Simply click the download link on their site to install the app and begin your family history journey today.

Similar Apps Comparison

Compared to other genealogy apps like Ancestry or MyHeritage, FamilySearch Tree has a significant advantage: it is completely free. There are no subscription fees to build your tree or access most historical records, which is a major benefit for casual and serious researchers alike. The app's deep integration with the vast, collaborative FamilySearch database means you can often find information contributed by other users, saving research time. However, its interface can feel less modern and visually polished than some competitors, and it focuses more on the core tree-building and record-linking experience rather than flashy features like DNA integration or extensive social sharing.

One potential disadvantage is that, because the FamilySearch tree is a single, shared world tree, you cannot create a completely private tree. Your research merges with others', which is great for collaboration but may not suit users who want full control and privacy. Apps like Ancestry allow for private, unsearchable trees. Furthermore, while the record collection is massive, some users find the search filters on dedicated paid platforms to be more powerful for breaking through tough genealogical walls. For a free, no-strings-attached app that provides immense value for building and discovering your lineage, FamilySearch Tree is an outstanding choice.

User Feedback

RootSeeker88: This app is a game-changer for our family reunions. We pass around a tablet and add stories and old photos directly to our ancestors' profiles. It's so easy to use and has settled a few long-standing debates about great-grandpa's birthplace! A must-have for families.

ArchiveHound: As a longtime researcher, I'm impressed. The record hints are surprisingly accurate, and I've broken down several brick walls using just my phone. The ability to attach sources directly from the search results is seamless. The free access is unbeatable.

MemoryKeeper_Jane: I love being able to work on our tree from my couch. Adding my parents' wedding photo and writing a little story about it felt so special. The app made it simple. I just wish the design felt a bit more modern, but it gets the job done perfectly.

FAQs About This App

Q1: Is my family tree private on the FamilySearch app?

A1: No, it is not private. FamilySearch Tree is part of a shared, collaborative family tree. This means other users may see and contribute to the profiles you work on. If you need a completely private tree, you may need to use a different service.

Q2: Do I need an account to use the app?

A2: Yes, you need a free FamilySearch account to use the app. Your tree and all your information are saved to this account, allowing you to access and edit your research from any device where you log in.

Q3: Can I access the app on both my phone and a computer?

A3: Absolutely. The FamilySearch Tree app syncs with your online account at FamilySearch.org. Any changes you make on your phone will appear on the website, and vice versa, so you can switch between devices seamlessly.
