iPad: Ancestry app on iPad


Ancestry App on iPad
Originally uploaded by midgefrazel
When compared to the screenshot from my iPod touch, the sheer size of the Ancestry.com app on my iPad looks massive!

This app is going to be great on my iPad because it is optimized for this type of screen. I think that because it is downloaded, it will not need the Web to be used. I have an iPad that is Wi-Fi only so I have to go outside my house to see.

I still don't know how I "refresh" when i make changes to my Ancestry tree which I do almost daily.

Does it take a GEDCOM or FTM file or did you have to re-type everything back in?

Hi Midge, You can be the pioneer and let us know how the app. works. I predict that the app. will work just fine and be a big help. Thanks for posting on your fine "Beyond the Horizon" tech-genealogy blog.

The Ancestry app reads your data directly from Your Ancestry tree. You log in and then it downloads it. This app version takes the photos too.
