- Fascinating and addicting site
- Exciting to reconnect with relatives through safe messaging
- Good ancestry data
- User-friendly interface with unobtrusive tutorials, questionnaires, and FAQ
- Inability to scroll during question answering, making research inaccurate
- Difficulty in connecting with relatives, location filter cannot be applied by itself
- Health data leaves a lot to be desired
- Disappointing experience on iPad
- Data visualizations could be more interactive and delivered with more pizzazz
- No dedicated messaging section and no notification for new messages
Not bad but could improve some functionality
Would recommend
