How to import from Legacy?
I am confused as to how to import my GED and/or Legacy file. Your instructions are incomplete and confusing!
United StatesCrashing upon launch
With the last update, app won't open, but crashes immediately. I have iOS 9.5.3, but that still should work.
United StatesNice!!
I am one that is usually reluctant to download updates for at least a month. But I held my breath and updated. I am LOVING this latest update. So many new and improved features. I’m not a syncing type. I use Families so that I can carry my data base along. So no feedback on that. But. The features. Wahoo!
United StatesDissappointing
Needs an update. When I try to zoom in on my documents they are blurry and unreadable. Adding info from Legacy seems more like converting and then downloading my Legacy info, not syncing like with Evernote or other programs that sync info. Was not worth the cost.
United StatesWorst app I've used
The app has been updated to include lots of information extracted from my Legacy Family Tree but the problem is that it is the absolutely most cumbersome, convoluted transfer process I've ever had the misfortune to use. It literally, if all goes well, takes an hour or more to do a simply sync because there is nothing simple about "Families." Why a company as terrific as Legacy would use this app for their iOS mobile customers is beyond comprehension. Today has been 100% wasted on trying to get the program to sync, with the result that I have had to dump it from my iPhone. How does one write Negative Stars? They don't deserve even one. It is worse than "I hate it." It has wasted too many precious hours/days trying to work the app.

DO NOT buy Families! The installation and sync features are nightmares. If you have a joint Apple account they are next to impossible. The user interface comes from pre-personal computer times. It gives Legacy Family Tree a bad name. Not a computer platform crossover.
