Program Changes Needed and should be REQUIRED

The concept is fantastic but find it extremely difficult to make modifications. When you need to delete or modify wrong data, I do not find an easy way to do so. You should be able to click on a data point with the option to ADD, DELETE or MODIFY existing data. The programmers have made this good program idea too complex and not user friendly. As a pass programmer, I always used the KISS method: Keep It Simple Stupid.

I have spent way to much time trying to understand this program with no success. I will have to select a different program. This is a shame, the programmers just need to open there eyes to make this program more friendly by allowing the user to modify data. Add a area for justification for why the modification is required before accepting it.

    @BillSherry

    If you could provide an example of the problem you are having (e.g. removing child from incorrect parents, perhaps) then a member of this forum will be able to provide clear advice. Most of the actions you describe are fairly straightforward to undertake and there are usually FamilySearch articles that give a step by step guide for each.

    Incidentally, during the process for making the desired change, a box appears requesting a reason statement for your action.
