Family Search is a great way to learn more about your ancestors and more about yourself! It is user friendly, even for my kids, who like to see which ancestor they look the most like and what percentage American they are. It's also a great place to keep track of important life details and memories.

I have found FamilySearch to be a free service. The main problem with it is that there is a lot of information that is inaccurate. Parent listed as siblings, wrong spouse information. You need to confirm any information that you use. It has improved over the years and there are ways to correct info but it can be cumbersome. The reason I rate FamilySearch 4 stars is that the service is free. Compared to what you get versus the sites you pay for, FamilySearch is the best deal around. It is maintained by one of the largest collectors or genealogy information in the world.

Love using family search for compiling stories, pictures, and timelines of my ancestors. Very easy to communicate with other relatives and compilers on the family tree. Steps are well guided--I've been using it since I was a young teenager. Grateful for the family history that I am able to keep track of through their services.

I used this software in a college family history class and it made my experience trying to find my ancestors much easier. Of course I ran into a lot of what seemed like dead ends, but you need to put a lot of time into familysearch in order to see the results.

Family search is the best way to really find where you came from. I never knew who my ancestors were until I got onto Family Search. I found out more about them and where I came from! You can find if you are related to people around you and much more! I definitely would consider this app to everyone!

I use Family Search casually to look into interesting facts about ancestors, and how far back various lines go. I understand why privacy laws and account security dictate how you need to get started with the program, but I dislike having so many logins for so many online services and wish it didn't take remembering a unique password to access geaneology.

Family Search has been a great way for my family to grow closed together while still being educated on something we love. Family Search has made many ways for you to be able to determine if the information you are being told is true or not. My experience with FamilySeach.org has been good all the way around.

I love this app. I have made a family tree that goes back nearly 12 generations in all directions for my children. One day we followed a line back as far as it would go and got to 500ad. Amazing!!! My kids love the activities section like which ancestor do you look most like. Where you family name comes from has also been a hit

Geneology is addicting. Such a great resource to find ancestors and connect with others who are on your family tree. The one thing I don't love is it someone changes something they change it without question even if you have worked so hard with original documents to uncover the correct family order, spouses, etc.
