User reviews

MEDBetterDNA is a great labor saving tool. i particularly liked being able to see all of the Notes in my Shared Match lists - a clear Cluster is often obvious.
by Jim Bartlett, 2019-07-17

The feature that I have been using displayed the notes I had put my matches. This enabled me to see at a glance how I connected with my matches. That was the only Medbetter feature I used. I sure hope that feature will return. The small portion of the notes AncestryDNA now displays is not sufficient, and I'm not sure why they bothered with that if that was all they were going to do. Having to click on the notes to display more doesn't cut it for me.

Great help in working with DNA matches - to see the notes, see where there are unlinked family trees, and be able to filter
