BillionGraves for Pc

It’s an interesting app, however it’s search function is flawed. When filling out the criteria for the search you might as well be searching for Santa Claus. Because if you put in the last name. state, city and county of the deceased you get the entire state or at least a subset of it. The app developers should be willing to give people accurate information and not fill the screen with tombstone images that aren’t accurate. The app should come back with this: “Sorry this grave has not been photographed. Would you like to have one of our volunteer grave photographers take a picture of your loved ones gravesite? If so, please provide your loved one’s detailed information and we will get the word out.” Then, when a volunteer is photographing a gravesite they know they are truly helping a family’s memory continue. Your current database search engine for a deceased is nothing short of a disappointing experience. It should be proactive. Inviting each one to ask for volunteer help in the matter. And not give up in disappointment! This app could be an fantastic family experience if I was developing it. Or, if you are willing to really take some advice from an experienced application developer. Family grave history doesn’t need to be lost! Denny H. Naples, Fl

I’ve been working on my family tree for years. I was excited to find this app. While the cemetery I need is on here. There’s no real easy way to search and some of the uploaded images are very bad with fingers in them taken from weird angles and there’s no way for me to know which images I’ve already looked at on the map. A full list and better images would be very useful. Also away to know what images I’ve already looked at. It’s great having pictures of the grave markers to research and I really hope to be able to utilize this app in my research.

I really enjoyed participating in a service project to photograph gravestones. The actual photography was easy. I couldn’t get my selfie stick to work with the app. We had a 5 level mausoleum to photograph, so it was tough to get up over 12 feet to see the top rows. I also had to get help to verify my account, which the tech support was able to do without any complications. Thank you for this app! I’ll be looking for a way to do this again.

My husband and I served a mission in Alabama. We had a great time cleaning up old cemeteries and getting them uploaded to be put on the site for people to see. It was a uniting experiance. Thank you BILLION GRAVES❤️
