Families uses a highly efficient database implementation, allowing very large family files to be supported. Users have successfully displayed and edited files containing over 300,000 individuals on an iPhone.
Families requires access to a Wi-Fi network or use of iTunes via a USB connection in order to transfer family files between your device and your PC. USB transfer uses iTunes File Sharing which requires your device to be running iOS 3.2 or above.
Families requires a companion program running on the PC to transfer family files to and from the iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad. This program, Families Sync, can be downloaded free of charge from www.telgen.co.uk/families.
A sample family file is included.
Support and exchange of information with other users is available via the user forum at www.telgen.co.uk/families/forum.

Customer Reviews
Excellent App
Families is an excellent app. It is well worth every penny. I have a copy on my iPad2 and my iPhone4. It is great to be able to carry my entire Legacy database with me on research trips or just family gatherings. Two way syncing has been flawless for me. I have never understood folks who purchase an app, then because they may be having issues with the app (usually user error or misunderstanding how a function works) they feel it necessary to write a negative Apps Store review. As has often been stated, a developer can't respond to you and assist you with any problems if you just choose to write a negative review, but make no effort to contact the developer to correct and/or assist you with your issue. If you have problems, contact TelGen. You will find their support to be outstanding. Disclaimer: I am not associated with Families (TelGen) or Legacy Family Tree (Millennia). I am just a very happy and satisfied customer of both.
