  • DNA tests

    With the DNA testing, I was able to locate my biological father. I always I always knew his name. My mother told me that so there was no question so when I start searching the records and I found him and a lot of my family. I was the only child at the time 76 now.

    It used to be a lot better. Started charging more and you’re getting less.

  • Holy miss managed.

    Every time you try to add someone to the tree the whole tree craps itself and makes it look like my grandpa did the dirty with my little cousin and created my great uncle somehow- great app with awesome sources but holy moly does it need to be polished.

  • Annoying

    My wife, daughter, and I all have the latest version of the app. Yet somehow when we’re sitting next to each other comparing functionality, there are differences. It makes no sense. One of us can review 85 traits. The other 5. Some of us can click on segments and learn more, for others that isn’t clickable. Annoying.

  • Hoping for a class action suit

    Edited because I’m more than fed up…I just received an email offering 40% off new memberships. WHAT ABOUT THOSE WHO HAVE SUPPORTED YOU PEOPLE FOR YEARS!? New people get 40% off while we just got a $20 a quarter RAISE?! You keep adding things that we need to pay for instead of grandfathering them into our memberships. I can't give zero stars for something that used to be free but now I'm up to paying $400 a year for. I just got another email saying "hey there's a new dna match to explore!" SAME DAMNED NAME YOU'VE SENT ME FOR LIKE 10 years! I don't know what's worse, the price hikes, the changes in dna telling me I am less and less of who I know I am or the fact that you keep sending me emails with 'new dna matches' only to find the same two names over and over. Seriously, the same...two...names. I know there are hundreds in my dna matches so why these two particular names that are 4th gen matches is beyond me. The price hike of now $99 every four months, a TWENTY DOLLAR INCREASE is absolute highway robbery and telling both my mother and myself that we are less of a percentage of Irish than we happen to know we are, with several grandparents/great grandchildren who were born and bred there then coming over, is ridiculous. While you keep upping another percentage of ethnicity over the irish when I have but one relative from this particular region is insane. If I am to pay so much more, a number I cannot afford at all, at least get the science right! Last time this hapoened, there was a sudden update that changed the numbers back to where they had been. Dont release the "updates" unless they are right with the current technology. Right now I am only paying because of the decades of work I have put into my tree and don't want to lose it. Your increase hase been reported to BBB as unfair practices as the increase was sudden as opposed to gradual and absolutely unfair to your customers.

    Received email notification from Ancestry of a message left on my tree by a member, but when I access the link to read it, it’s not being shown

  • Horrible UI

    This app is pretty garbage

  • Basic membership has no value

    Since I first signed up over three years ago a great number of features that was available to me were put behind a paywall. I wouldn’t be surprised if they restrict search function as well.

  • Charge

    Got charged to cancel subscription. Don’t recommend go with another company instead they’re just money hungry

  • Native American

    It would be nice to have more information on where exactly in Native America I am from
