Momentree
iPhone / Style de vie
Momentree is a private app for building your family tree and the wider web of people who matter to you — not just blood relatives, but friends, colleagues and neighbours too.
In days gone by, families would gather and reminisce — refreshing the stories and small details that defined who they were and what they meant to each other. Momentree brings that habit back, in your pocket.
WALK YOUR TREE
Browsing feels like moving through your family, not scrolling a list. Tap a parent to slide up. Tap a child to slide down. Tap a partner to slide sideways. Spatial, intuitive, and quietly delightful.
CAPTURE THE MOMENTS THAT MATTER
Weddings, baptisms, graduations, that gathering everyone still talks about — record them as Moments and link the people who were there. Dated Moments appear on a personal timeline. Undated ones become Groups: the Sunday lunch crowd, the old university lot, the school-run mums.
NEVER MISS AN ANNIVERSARY
A 90-day lookahead surfaces upcoming birthdays, wedding anniversaries, and the dates of meaningful Moments. A gentle nudge to pick up the phone, send a card, or simply remember.
RICH RELATIONSHIPS
Record biological, adoptive, step, and foster parent–child relationships. Track partnerships through every phase — dating, engaged, married, separated, divorced — and archive past chapters to your timeline so the history isn't lost.
HONOUR THOSE WE'VE LOST
Mark loved ones as deceased, with or without a date. Their place in your tree, and your memories of them, remain.
COMPLETELY PRIVATE
Everything lives on your device. No accounts. No sign-up. No cloud sync. No analytics. No ads. No network code at all. Your family is your business.
In an age of fleeting feeds and forgotten names, Momentree is a quiet place to tend the relationships that actually shape a life — and to keep them, for as long as you want to remember.
Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
What's New in Momentree 1.2
This update makes your family records richer and more accurate, while keeping everything private and on your device.
Surname at birth
• Record a person's surname at birth — also known as their maiden name — and see it shown as "née" or "né" on their card.
• Search now finds people by their surname at birth, not just their current surname.
Places
• Add birth and death places to people, and a place to partnerships and Moments.
• Place names are remembered and reused as you type, so the same town stays consistent across your tree. Places you no longer use are tidied away automatically.
Approximate and partial dates
• Enter a full date, just a month and year, or a year on its own — ideal for older records.
• Mark a date as about, before, after, or estimated, shown in familiar genealogical form such as "c. 1850" or "bef. 1900".
Siblings
• Each person now has a Siblings section, worked out from shared parents and labelled full, half, step, adoptive, or foster.
A clearer person card
• Birth and death details now read as a short, tidy biography, including dates and places.
Other refinements
• A cleaner place picker that matches the rest of the app.
• Small polish to the "link as partners" suggestion.
As always, Momentree keeps your family tree entirely on your device. No account, no sync, no tracking.
