One of the best things about MacFamily Tree is that it is easy to create a very usable website from within its export feature. Many of these are very useful and some are fun to look at as well. In addition to the general viewing of the family tree and the statistics MacFamily Tree allows you to generate and save reports. You can choose statistics on a wide range of things, such as peoples ages, parents age at child birth, children per family and much much more. Looking at the Statistics is fun too but really comes into its own when you have lots of data from lots of people in your family tree. Click on them and they become the centre of the tree. There are ancestor charts, descendant charts, timelines, statistics, fan charts, genogram and more and best of all is an interactive 3D ‘Virtual Tree’ that you can zoom in and out of, rotate and view from different angles and simply hover over individuals to get information on them. Click on the View options though and you get a whole list of ways to visualise your family tree. Even in the basic edit mode you can see a ‘person context’ chart which shows a basic family tree. This is where the fun really begins with a huge array of different ways to view your family tree.

Each record can be labelled and you can include ‘sources’ so that you know where various bits of data came from enabling you to check their reliability. These can of course be added direct from iPhoto. Not just birth deaths and marriages but occupations, graduation, illnesses and a whole host of other event types – Even circumcision if you really want to! You can add facts about people, such as physical characteristics, possessions, e-mail addresses and more, add as many notes as you want and also add media such as photos.

You can even import people from your Mac Address Book application if you wish.Īs well as the important data about individuals you can also add events to each person. Not only is it easy to add the information but it is presented in a nice easy to read format. You can add all of the usual important data on a person such as their names, dates of birth, parents, partners, children etc.

#Macfamilytree 9 review update#
It has recently had an update to a new version which prompted me to have another look at our family tree. I’ve been meaning to work on a family tree for ages and did make a start a few years ago using software called MacFamily Tree.
