FamilySearch Get Involved for Negative User Reviews

✓ Good, could be better.I love the initiative and like the opportunity to pay it forward by being part of the movement to index all documents and pave the path for other the same way that others did before me. The app it’s user friendly. You won’t have any trouble using it. I suggest you do. I don’t understand why you can only review names on the app, and only able to index on the webpage. It would be convenient to also have the opportunity to index on the road. I’ve been reviewing names for some time and am able to see the stats on the webpage, but won’t sync on the app. It always shows empty, on cero (0). Also, when reviewing names, it often asks me to review the same name several times as if it were a different section or the next name on the list although is the same one on the page. Please fix!.JosephBoyVersion: 1.1.1

✓ DisappointingNo way to make it open to English. Why are the only countries available are in South America? What about Europe and North America? Useless to me..DommieCatVersion: 1.3.7

✓ This is not familysesrch.com butDownloaded this thing it was family search.com app. I can’t see any use for it. I have my family trees going back to 20AD!.Dmitche3Version: 1.3.2

✓ App does not recognize Apple language default setting; support is worthlessMy default language is English. All of my apps recognize this except FamilySearch’s Get Involved app. There is no way to set a language in the app. Searching the developer’s site for support is worthless as it defaults to general support. There does not appear to be a place to provide meaningful feedback to the developer Searches for language settings on their “support” site only give instructions for changing it to something other than English. The result is that no matter what I do, the app presents me with Spanish names. Really disappointed..HikerdadVersion: 1.3.7

✓ United States English doesn't workI live in the U.S. and speak only English. US English has been "temporarily" unavailable since I downloaded the app several days ago. No response when I contacted support. Deleted. Very disappointed..Nicknamethatisn'ttakenVersion: 1.4.3

✓ Would love to use but can’tSpanish only I can’t speak or read it I want to see English records but there’s no way to change it.Pacrat1Version: 1.4.1

✓ Addicting, but Bad BugsI love the opportunity to help review names, and the convenience of being able to use my iPhone to help family history progress! I can review names when waiting in line at the store or when I have a few minutes to spare. Easy. There are several bugs in this app; but perhaps the worst is a newer bug that name swaps. When you click, “Incorrect Highlight” or hit the “Back” button, the contents of the text box gets stuck on the last name you reported as “Incorrect Highlight”, or approved as a “Match”. This can be corrected by clicking “Unsure”, but it took some experimenting to figure out. A glitch that has been a problem for awhile is the thermometer/counter, which doesn’t work regularly once you get past about 300k names. I have been stuck at under 400K for several months, and easily done 2 million or more names. Please provide an update to this app. You’ve started such a wonderful thing. Thank you!.TwitterBiasVersion: 1.4.1

✓ App errorI have been able to review names and index on the website, but from the app I keep receiving a message that documents are not available from my country. I would like to do more from the app, but until I can get past this issue, I’ll have to stick to the website.NHL AceVersion: 1.3.2

✓ EnglishDear family search get involved I am writing to ask you if your company could make it possible for English speaking people to be able to transcribe English records because the names would be easier to read if they were English names.Harley GayleVersion: 1.4.1

✓ Still only in SpanishLogged in and thought I had done something wrong but looks like many people are having the same problem—only Spanish-language countries are available, and support has not let out one peep on whether they know or are trying to fix it. Bye bye bye!.JenisaurVersion: 1.4.1

✓ LanguageIt keeps taking me to Spanish. How do you change it to English???.Juan ic confusedVersion: 1.4.0

✓ HighlightsThank you so much for this app! I like how you can type names from a phone. I just wish you can make your own highlights if needed because sometimes the computer misses parts of a name or mistakes a word for a name..Faith, Hope, CharityVersion: 1.0

✓ Transparency?Who owns the model and data? I am afraid the Saints are being exploited by providing free data to build a model that may be used for profit..CogsboxVersion: 1.3.2

✓ Spanish language onlyNo matter what I do, I can’t change to non-Spanish language countries. I don’t speak Spanish, so I can’t help using this app..Sumrunner1234Version: 1.4.1

✓ App doesn’t track how many names I reviewApp is not keeping track of names being reviewed..Messymom4Version: 1.4.0

✓ Only Central & South America AvailableI enjoy the app and it is quite user friendly. I only have Hispanic countries available to pull from and so I’m not sure why I cannot index North America or Europe..JJohns10Version: 1.3.7

✓ Only in SpanishI wanted to love this as I have been waiting for an app like this for a long time. However your development team needs to fix the language issues! The fact that I can’t change the language at all is just not ok. It is stuck on Spanish! It’s been stuck on Spanish for a month now. Fix your issues..BingowashernamoVersion: 1.3.9

✓ I don’t know SpanishApp only offers Spanish speaking countries. I can’t read Spanish. Deleted and re-downloaded, and same thing. Can’t find any option to focus on English speaking countries. Deleted app for good..Relative newbieVersion: 1.3.7
