One of my favourite features is the daily picks in the discover feed. What I'd love them to do with that now is to email me a task once a day like "tag the people in this photo" or "are you sure this person died at 135?". If we did nothing else with our trees, by the end of the year we'd still have cleaned it up 365 times.

Ancestry keeps adding more unnecessary features instead of fine-tuning their DNA database. I have requested multiple times for my raw DNA results and never received them. I have a puzzle related to true-lines that no one has an answer for. I have decided to use Ancestry as a research database and have shrugged in frustration over many disappointing failures that Ancestry could improve but Ancestry just keeps adding for unnecessary new "features" instead.

I have a Lot of Ancestry to catch up on bcuz I haven't been logging on as much lately. It's bad timing for me to have a new paid login since Legacy Family Tree has upgraded to 10 recently & I still have that to deal with. ONE more thing only cuz I was on FamilySearch til early this morning & I hadn't heard you mention it about the Descendant View is having up to 5 filters for 'First Ancestor (the oldest dads in each of your lines)'. And kind of like you were saying today, you do have to have yourself as the 'focus person'. Yeah, you May have mentioned that but I missed it and it's been there for over six months.

You can export your tree in a GEDCOM file. Also know that if you cancel your subscription with Ancestry (I don't work for them, just FYI) your tree will remain there. That way if you return, you can pick up where you left off. Keep your tree public too so others can benefit from your hard work. Nothing will go away, you just won't be able to see some of the records. You can research for free on FamilySearch, the hyperlink in sources on Ancestry to those records.

The way they do the regions in Africa, which has historically had huge migration patterns, making the regions more pinpointed is actually reducing the African descent of many people, especially those of mixed race.

How bout be grateful to this woman for her helpful videos but who has nothing to do with Ancestry? Why are you complaining to her? Rude.

@@mindyhanson4124, go read other people's comments. At least 10% are complaining abut broken stuff on Ancestry. I am grateful for much of what she does - I am CERTAIN by your reply that you haven't read comments I've left on her other videos. She's an influencer. She can call them to task for their shoddy features. Wonder why she doesn't?

Ancestry is greedy! They don’t have any features that I would pay them an additional monthly fee for on top of the ever increasing monthly costs of membership . They should have just included the features in the monthly membership

Good content! But I hate all that stuff sliding around at the bottom of the screen. Very distracting. It makes me want to stop watching ASAP. Things don't need to move.
