Heirloom Tree is a completely free family record app. No subscriptions. No in-app purchases. No ads. No accounts. Your family's story, written down well enough to pass on. Every family has a root system. This app is for the families who want to keep theirs. ■Why we built this The oldest storytellers in every family don't live forever. The names, the villages, the photos, the small details — if no one writes them down, they're gone. We made Heirloom Tree so every child can carry their family tree in their pocket: ancestors, origins, the generation poem, the faces of grandparents, where the family came from. This is our gift to the Lin family, and to every family. ■What it does ◆ Print your family tree as a PDF (lead feature) • One tap turns your whole tree into a print-ready PDF: genogram + generational register. • A4, A3, portrait or landscape. Pages split automatically — no one gets sliced in half. • Print it for Lunar New Year, bind it for the family altar, mail it to relatives overseas. A real family book, starting from you. ◆ Family tree (genogram) • Standard notation: square □ for male, circle ○ for female. Generations stack clearly, birth order left to right. • Parents, spouses, children — every relationship visible. The deceased belong on the tree too. • A double frame marks "me." From your own perspective, a concentric view shows how everyone relates to you. • Children who died young, pregnancies that didn't carry, relatives lost to time — they all keep a small place on the tree. Every life belongs to the family. ◆ Kinship calculator (Chinese-style cousin terms, plus English) • Type a path — "my dad's cousin's daughter" — and get the answer: second cousin. (The English cousin system is included; the full Chinese 親屬稱謂 grid is a Chinese heritage feature.) • Useful for figuring out what to call relatives at weddings, funerals, and family gatherings. ◆ Generation Poem (昭穆, Chinese heritage feature) • Enter your family's generational poem. The app tags each member with their generation and their generational character. • See a cousin's name and immediately know which generation they're from. • Overseas Chinese families who use the English interface still need this — it stays front and centre. ◆ Surname origins (first release: Lin 林) • Built-in reading content: the origin of 林 as a surname, the Xi He 西河 hall, Lin families in Fujian, Mazu (Lin Mo-niang) 媽祖, and migration from China to Taiwan. • More surnames (Chen, Huang, Zhang, Wang…) will be added in a future version. • For other locales, a short "What is a surname origin?" explainer is included alongside the Lin content. ◆ Remembrance dates (anniversaries of passing) • Local notifications for anniversaries of passing, Memorial Day-style commemorations. • Lunar calendar support for Chinese-heritage families — grandparents' dates will not be missed. ◆ Your data, fully yours • JSON backup and GEDCOM export — standard formats that work with other genealogy software. • No cloud lock-in. No account. No phone tether. ■Where it's going The current version is a quiet, complete, single-device family tree tool. A future version will add cloud sync and shared family editing. After that, relative matching to help you find long-lost branches of your family. But no matter which version ships next, free, no ads, your data is yours — these three things will never change. Dedicated to the Lin family, and to every family — with wishes of health and peace. Write down your roots. Pass the story on. ## Rankings - #1,468,993 — Overall ## Similar extensions and apps - [Family Tree: Family Life](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6766431642) - [Family Roots: Private Tree](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6767914232) — 5.00 / 5 - [Heirloom Family Tree](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6792953753) - [Arbor: Family Tree & Genealogy](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6783099492) - [Our Family: Tree Maker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6762187333) - [Family Tree: My Ancestors](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6760984404) - [Bright Branches: Family Tree](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6781474224) - [Family Tree Keeper](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6774959025) - [Family Tree: Our Heritage](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6777958475) — 4.40 / 5 - [Treelume](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6792719052) - [Family Tree](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id498167544) - [Family Memory: Tree & Journey](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6787573545) --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6792604015)
