stop sending me notifications asking me to add relatives.
I do not want to receive notifications from you daily, asking me to add relatives to my family.
Stop sending me notifications about the same possible relatives over and over again. It's really irritating and i'm about to remove the application if it doesn't stop.
1,150 votesWe should be able to do this. That’s reasonable.

let me add my son's dad without adding him as my spouse
My son's dad is not my spouse but it automatically says he is. As well the application won't let me post a story for him on his family tree profile page. I click post and it takes forever and doesn't update it.
242 votesRight now you can label your son’s father as an ex-partner if you wish.

enhance email so I can click on photos to send a message
I'd like to be able to click on any relatives photo and then have an ajax box slide over or popup that allows me to write a message and send it really easily. I need something visual (like YackPack) to help me remember to stay in touch with the people that I care about the most.

sort sibblings by birthdate instead of order of entry
Sibblings appear by order of entry instead of date of birth. The only way around is to re-enter them by proper order and delete the old ones. It would be nice if they were automatically sorted by birthdate

get rid of the ads for singles. We're a conservative family.
Get rid of the 'Naughty or Nice' singles type of ads. It almost makes me want to drop the whole application.

the IQ test ad is misleading and is false advertising
take this ad OFF! at the end of thest it coerces you into subscribing to phone TXT service at $9.99 /month. It is misleading because it shows "test scores" for people who have never taken the test.

Symbols
The use of the symbols used on traditional family trees would be good.
For instance the symbols that are used when a divorce has occurred between two people, or when a death has occurred.
This would make it more user friendly instead of trying to work out dates etc....53 votes -
