Your family tree like you’ve never seen it before – The new MyHeritage app was made especially for mobile devices using cutting-edge HTML5, and combines beautiful graphics and touch-screen gestures to create an experience that will impress your relatives and make you proud of your family history.
Explore the tree using pinch-zoom and panning, or easily navigate with our unique radar (iPad only). Tap on a card to view a family member’s profile page, where you can browse information and events, view birthday and anniversary info, tap to email or simply give them a call. We’re already working hard on additional features, including editing of the family tree which version 1.0 doesn’t provide yet, so stay tuned for updates.
