Folklore: Our History

Build a beautiful family tree that stays completely private on your device and in your own iCloud.

Folklore is the private family tree you can actually share — build it together with your family over iCloud, with partners, half-siblings, and adoptive ties recorded the way they really are.

Build your family tree, record the people who matter, and keep every name, date, story, and photo in one place — stored on your device and synced through your own private iCloud. Your family history is yours alone. We can't see it, and it never lives on our servers.

BUILD YOUR TREE

• Add parents, partners, children, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and step-relatives
• See your whole family in a clean, zoomable tree in portrait or landscape
• Color-code people to keep branches clear at a glance
• Add life events, places, occupations, and research notes

DISCOVER HOW YOU'RE CONNECTED

• The relationship calculator tells you exactly how any two people are related — "second cousin once removed" and more
• Names, dates, and connections update everywhere as you build

BRING OLD PHOTOS BACK TO LIFE

• Restore and enhance faded family photos entirely on your iPhone — repair, de-yellow, sharpen, and brighten
• Nothing is ever uploaded; all processing happens on your device

KEEP YOUR RESEARCH PORTABLE

• Import and export standard GEDCOM files, including photos, so your work is never locked in
• Share access with trusted family through private iCloud sharing

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

• No account, no login, no ads, no tracking
• Your tree lives on your device and in your private iCloud
