Ancestry Academy for Negative User Reviews
✓ Don’t workApp won’t let me sign in and keeps saying error..Version: 2.0.6
✓ First video, bad adviceThe video regarding organizing leaves left me asking, “These are professional hints?” The speaker gave three hints and disqualified one because she already had the photo. But what about the person who posted the photo? What if this person is unknown to you and could have done research you could obtain? What if this person is a cousin from a branch of your tree you need help with? Don’t disregard a hint so quickly!!.Version: 5.801.1
✓ 0 starsI can not even see my test 🧐.Version: 7.620.1
✓ Doesn't Work!If you're not going to maintain it, Ancestry, then take it off the App Store!.Version: 2.0.6
✓ CountriesOnly geared to an American audience. Not very inclusive of other countries.Version: 8.101.1
✓ US-centricI’m disappointed to see how heavily US-centric the app is. Minimal content for those of us who pay good money for Ancestry memberships in other countries. Try a bit of inclusivity..Version: 5.801.1
✓ Useless for AustraliaCompletely inappropriate for the Australian App Store. Entire focus is USA.Version: 7.800.1
✓ Much ado about nothingPretty enough, but it won't load any of the lessons. I'm a paid subscriber, so it's not like only the free ones are available. Waste of time and money. Won't be renewing any of the extras. Very disappointed in spite of the mess they made of FamilyTree Maker. Sigh.Version: 2.0.6
✓ Doesn’t workI thought I’d struck gold when I found this app. Then I download it and every time I try to sign in I get an error that says I must be connected to a network to continue. Even though I am. And even though the main Ancestry and AncestryDNA apps work just fine. Disappointed is an understatement. For what Ancestry charges for membership I expect better..Version: 2.0.6
✓ Keeps crashingI have not had the luxury of using the app due to it keeps crashing😔.Version: 2.0.6
✓ GreatGreat app to complete courses whilst away from PC However - despite having mobile data enabled, cannot use the app without WiFi ### please fix this ##% I do wish the Academy would return the mini tests and certificates though And would benefit from an update for iPhone X display.Version: 2.0.6
✓ Mostly an adOnly free courses are mentioned in the description. The only ones that are free describe their products. Most are not free..Version: 1.0.4
✓ AncesttyLove this app but not all videos have captions so I get left behind as usual when this happens.Version: 5.902.1
✓ Great for American audiencesThis is a useful resource and some videos are relevant to all countries. However the fast majority are aimed at an American audience. It would be brilliant if there were videos for different countries. Also some of the videos for DNA have not been updated for the last east website. Finally the app has been working fine till now, but it now keeps crashing and will not open..Version: 2.0.6
✓ Connectivity enhancement requiredWhen not on WiFi the app won’t let me login. It states that I must be on a network to continue. This is somewhat ridiculous. I have enough GBs to cover this, and you don’t give me the choice, just cut me off from access. Tut tut.Version: 2.0.6
✓ MalfunctionKeeps saying it needs Internet access even when all other apps work.Version: 2.0.6
✓ Doesn’t workThis app no longer works...I can’t sign in. I wish I was able to use it 😞.Version: 2.0.6
✓ Ancestry academyAnother worthless app from Ancestry.Version: 1.0.4
✓ Rough experienceI'm pretty sure something's gone wrong the past few months; I can only see four (unwanted) videos, and trying to change the topic selection crashes the app. No updates I can see..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Not impressedVery biased towards US users, some very basic omissions for people outside the US. This could be useful if it had been designed for all users not purely for American users. Some of the annoying comments in the presentations. On Irish research you can ignore the 1911 census data as this is after the peak of immigration, so Ireland was empty after this time. On English research the 1939 census is ignored as possibly very few people in America would have ancestors there at this time. The presenter also said that Coventry was in the North, shows a lack of research, yes it is north of London but it is in the Midlands. Also the occupation char lady was somebody who worked for rich people, I bet most char ladies didn’t know that. The comments in themselves are trivial but it showed a lack of knowledge but would be suitable for Americans but not for anyone else. Sorry this was a good idea but it could have been so much better if it had been aimed at a wider audience. I will not be watching anymore of these.Version: 5.902.1
✓ WorthlessSays learn when and how you want. What it doesn't tell you is that you need a wi-fi connection. What if I'm somewhere that doesn't have wi-fi? Which is most of the time..Version: 2.0.3
