"I like the fact that this service is available for people to see who was in their family. I think that is quite helpful. I wish that there was a better way for someone to find if, say, a relative had kids, and, if so, how many and what were their names. That would really be helpful."

"It`s a good place to find your family ancestry.. and it`s nice you can still research a few things without paying for subscription... The only thing I`d change is .. if they lowered the monthly subscription at least by half I`m sure they`d have many more paying subscribers... And like other sites they should allow ppl to upload their raw DNA from other companies. Only reason I give 4 stars.... but this is the go to place for most ppl to do research.."

"An often used app; weekly if not daily. Rating has been 4-5 starts for years. Today (22 Mar 2023) drops to 2 stars because latest update causes the app to crash within minutes of opening. Crash happens regardless of tasks, navigation, etc. Issue persists after uninstall app + reatart phone + reinstall app. Will update stars when bug is fixed and app is once again usable. Now, Instagram or facebook while I wait?"

"App is very glitchy & often freezes. There is too much bogus info which probably is the reason for the glitches. I haven`t been able to use the app since yesterday after you installed the last update. Furthermore, Ancestry is not worth $40.00 a month & it`s getting harder for me to justify paying YOU for information I gathered over the years. Think about it. That is what you are doing. If you are looking for a good genealogy program, consider carefully before signing up with Ancestry."

"Ancestry advised would help me fix problem but when i gave them my contact info as requested NOBODY has gotten back to me! I purchased app through Google Play in Sept. 2022!! I have been charged $24.99 a month since then. I tried to use it last week and was advised my ancestry account was not active!! I contacted Ancestry and they advised it was Google Play`s error. I contacted Google Play and have more than 20 emails with a man named Daniel and a women named Flora and Bella!! They keep telling"
