Known problems

Your addresses update the family map
French addresses added or changed in a person’s record or profile are now geocoded automatically after they are saved, on both the website and the app. The positions then appear on the map, framed to include the family. An address that cannot be matched reliably remains without a marker. Each person only sees the level of detail and photos they are allowed to view, without GPS tracking.

The family map is coming
A family map is being prepared for the website and app. It will let you find relatives by their portraits, with search, a list and automatic framing of the whole family. Only addresses and photos you are allowed to view will appear, without GPS tracking. The map background and address geocoding are not yet enabled; the mobile map will require a new compatible app version.
11/11/2026
Share private videos in posts
On the website, add MP4 or WebM videos to family and event posts, up to 20 MB per video. Relatives can play them directly in the post or download them, subject to its audience and their access permissions.
11/11/2026
Locate people in family photos
Manually tag a relative by placing a marker on the photo and choosing their profile. Find someone by name and locate them in the image. Search, zoom up to 400% and keyboard controls make group photos easier to explore.
11/11/2026
Add photos directly to a profile
From a relative’s Photos tab, add up to ten photos within your permissions. Previews let you review the selection and remove an image before uploading. Photos are added to the profile in this family space without creating a feed post.
11/11/2026
More reliable posts and attachments
Quick text edits keep existing media. OpenDocument files are recognised more reliably, and form size limits match upload limits to avoid rejecting valid files.
11/11/2026
Create a tree without an account, starting with “Me”
Build a tree manually in the public workshop with parents, partners and children, then export it as PDF, SVG or PNG. Start with a “Me” profile to fill in. The draft stays in this browser for 30 minutes and can be cleared at any time.
09/11/2026
Export GEDCOM and download its preview
Active members can export GEDCOM from the tree within their viewing permissions; importing remains restricted to owners and administrators. The public workshop also offers PDF, SVG and PNG previews, with corrected PDF pagination.
08/11/2026
Your feedback: profile permissions, deaths and birthdays
Profiles identify the people actually allowed to edit them. A death can be recorded without a date or with a partial date; ages and upcoming birthdays are clearer. Invitations distinguish Member and Administrator, with only the owner able to choose the Administrator role.
07/11/2026
Correct relationships while building your first branches
Correct parents and partners during tree setup. Changes are explicit and do not silently move children or other relationships.
05/11/2026
Public tools for genealogy and family reunions
New pages offer guides and tools for planning a family gathering. The genealogy workshop lets you preview a GEDCOM without an account, directly in your browser, without uploading the file to the server.
05/11/2026
Define the branches of your family space
Family settings can define a reference person or couple and the scope of family branches. GEDCOM imports can select descendants with their partners and, optionally, their ancestors.
04/11/2026
Review events more easily before responding
Viewing an event is separate from signing up. Questionnaires and previews are clearer, and saving a registration provides an explicit confirmation.
29/10/2026
More reliable imports and exports
Excel imports identify rows that need correcting. Genealogy workbooks respect the information visible to the requester and preserve entered text.
29/10/2026
Save a relative to your contacts
Export a profile as a vCard for your address book. The file includes only information you are allowed to view.
29/10/2026
Cœur de Famille is also available in English
The public website, account access, family space and demo are available in French and English. Your language choice is remembered and shared with the app.
28/10/2026
Simpler profiles and family navigation
Profiles separate About, Family, Posts and Life story. Relative cards show useful details, photos use the feed’s mosaic layout, and the main sections remain directly accessible in navigation.
26/10/2026
A more varied quiz with immediate feedback
The quiz draws on life stories and makes better use of family closeness. Answers receive red and green feedback, questions load in batches, and people with the same name are easier to distinguish.
25/10/2026
Clearer albums and loading feedback
Photos and posts use a more consistent presentation. Page and image loading is visible; upload errors remain readable, and partial uploads identify photos already saved.
25/10/2026
Share a story with the families you choose
Share a post or story in several selected family spaces. Linked stories can then be updated across families within existing permissions.
25/10/2026
Pets have a place in the family
The Family tab includes pets, their details and their relationships. They are distinguished from people in family profiles.
24/10/2026
Attach documents and share your profile across families
Posts can include documents. Profile owners can also automatically share their personal information and life story across their family spaces, subject to visibility rules.
24/10/2026
Download and print your family tree
Download the tree as an image or prepare it for PDF printing. The layout preserves the positions of people and relationships across pages.
19/10/2026
Personal information is easier to enter
Identity, contact details, address and portrait forms use a consistent layout. Set visibility for individual details and use the calendar to enter dates.
18/10/2026
Clearer first steps, shaped by your feedback
An empty feed guides you towards adding a relative, sending an invitation or sharing a first post according to your permissions. The directory offers sorting and statuses, and the tree presents ancestors and blended families more clearly.
16/10/2026
Add relatives without having to invite them
Enter your first relatives in a list or cards, reuse people already entered and review a summary. Email is optional, and sending an invitation is an explicit choice.
11/10/2026
Track requests and identify managed profiles
Requests remain in your history after they are processed. Managed profiles are identifiable, and requests to manage a profile without an account have a dedicated workflow.
09/10/2026

Cœur de Famille is available on Google Play. Find the app from the website to keep sharing with your family on your phone.

Find the sources behind family quiz questions
Quiz questions link to their permitted sources. For a paper game, you can choose whether to print the answers.
05/10/2026
Manage profiles for relatives without an account
Assigned managers can help maintain profiles for relatives without an account, within their granted permissions. Existing people can also be reused in a new family space without entering them again.
05/10/2026
A shared timeline for family stories
Stories and life milestones come together in a shared timeline, with places, periods and accessible references. A person’s photos and posts have separate views.
03/10/2026
Build your first branches at your own pace
Resume a paused setup without starting over. Your chosen family name is kept, a relative’s birth date can remain unknown, and an email address can be corrected before confirmation.

Tag relatives in photos
Tags for people without an account can be confirmed according to the applicable permissions.
26/09/2026

19/09/2026
Edit posts and track invitations
Edit a post’s text, photos and audience. Track and resend invitations; changing the recipient cancels earlier deliveries.
08/09/2026
Several photos in one post
A single post can include several photos. Albums, photo tagging and the family quiz also have better connected workflows.
05/09/2026
