Descendants with tasks

We need a way to share the Family Tree list of descendants with tasks with the to-do-list in Family Search. This would allow use of larger screens and keyboards to resolve the data problems. Now I have to copy the ID to a paper note and then look up the person in FS on my computer. Resolving duplicates and/or doing data look up via a smart phone is too slow and too easy to miss something.

    That would be a useful addition. Or just to have the descendants with tasks added to the web version of Family Tree.

    In the meantime, it would speed things up for you if you click on the person on the task list to go to his or her page on your smart phone, this will put the person first on your Recents list. Then just go to your computer, click Recents, and jump right to the person.

    If I click on Annie Eliza, the go to my computer, I immediately see this:

    Also, do keep in mind that the Descendancy pedigree view does give you the same list, just a little more spread out. If I go to Abraham Brown, again via my Recents list and open three generations down from him, that is 4 generations total, I see this:

    You can also share a link direct to any descendancy view:
