Discover your family tree with this slick app

Creating your family tree offers an interesting insight into your past. MacFamilyTree makes it easy to enter and visualize your family history within a tailored OS X style interface.

Slick 3D presentation

MacFamilyTree does much more than just be used to create family reports and create contact information via ID cards for your family. The impressive 3D effects it adds to family trees makes navigating it really slick. Most recently, MacFamilyTree has been updated to allow users to search online for your family history, a service which currently is free to use. You can also publish your family trees and history to the web with iCloud

Lacks a wider network search feature

The main drawback of MacFamilyTree however is the fact that it doesn't have the search power and social interaction aspect that something like say Genes Reunited has. This means discovering your wider family tree isn't really possible. Some users have also reported that it's also prone to lags and crashes when family information files grow quite big according, meaning that you might have problems managing large family trees.

Brings your family tree to life

Overall however, MacFamilyTree makes discovering your family tree a slick and easy experience.
