"Love this app and how convenient it makes it to index; however, I haven`t been able to index for the past few days, because an error message keeps appearing when trying to load names."

"Sad. Can`t even log in. Same lds account of always but this is the one app that won`t let me log in, even if everything is right. You guys need a log in option through the church account natively like in all the other apps cause this one alone doesn`t work. I love reviewing on mi laptop but so wish I could on my phone."

"I love the app, along with the computer online version. It`s a great way to pass the time, asking with helping others learn their genealogy. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because some places aren`t available. For example, within the United States of America, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Iowa are not there. I`m sure there are more, but these are the ones I noticed. Otherwise, great app."

"This app is incredible! It is so very easy and quick to be able to contribute to family history by indexing. It literally takes maybe 2 minutes to do 20 names. I love that I can just do a few here and there whenever I have a minute."

"If social media cannot remember your saved password and keep it secure from breeches caused by being compromised on social media platforms by other medias sincing or copying your passwords on every website you sign-in to; The demand more ways to ascertain all of your private information by alledging they cannot remember your passwords, is a farce to cover up the facts that it is META and Google, as well as all other media, is gathering all persons identity to supply The Mormon Temples for Satan."

"I`m not sure how to rate this. I love the idea, and want to help where I can. However, the app is huge and takes up way too much space on my phone. It`s easily twice as big as the next biggest app. I`m planning to delete the app as soon as I finish helping my favorite state`s census project. There are a lot of other things I`d rather have on my phone."

"For a time, this was a fantastic app. I was able to review hundreds of names. The only issue was when something other than the census came up for review. But in the last couple of weeks, it`s barely working. I`m wondering if all or almost all of the 1950 Census names are finished. I would love to think that now we can search the census, but that`s not yet the case."

"It`s fun to use. Features I like include the ability to zoom out and see more text. I have two features to request: the ability to go back to a previous name, and the ability to change the contrast and balance of the displayed image. One thing that wasn`t clear to me at first was that the ``enter`` key on my keyboard was meant to be used for entering ``match`` after editing."

DESCRIPTION
Historical records—like immigration papers and birth certificates—can help people learn interesting and valuable insights about their family.
Problem is, many of those insights are locked away in documents that are not easily searchable.
FamilySearch Get Involved provides simple tools to unlock the family names in those documents so they can be searched online for free.
How it works
FamilySearch uses sophisticated scanning technology to find ancestor names in historical records. Most of the time the computer can recognize the correct name. But it can’t always get it right.
Using FamilySearch Get Involved, anyone can quickly review names in historical records and verify what the computer found or flag any errors. Each name that gets corrected is a person that can now be found by their living family.
• Help people find their ancestors online.
• Focus on a country that is important to you.
• Give back to the genealogy community.
• Use spare time in a meaningful way.
Even correcting just one name makes a big difference. The names you will see in the Get Involved app are real people that have been lost to history until now. With your help, these people can be reunited with their family across generations.
