Software always changes, and that's okay as long as the users are notified or have a way to navigate the changes.

Is there a webpage that lists out the general/big updates done to the site? The Family Tree app always shows a popup listing the changes done. I'm looking for something similar, but for the website. My aunt is hesitant to use the site anymore because "they always change it".

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Just in passing ...

    Short Answer: Yes; but, NOT "All" the "Changes", immediately; as, they occur ...

    Please be aware ...

    That 'FamilySearch' simply DOES NOT have the Resources to IMMEDIATELY promulgate/disseminate/communicate "Changes" as they are released/updated - often, it is after the event.

    The 'FamilySearch' "Blog", is one place to follow, to become aware of NEW "Changes".

    Here is the main URL for the 'FamilySearch' "Blog":
