The app is great for use on a phone but it makes doing in depth research. Fixing duplicate records is much more difficult task with the app if one desires to verify all the data before merging.
Please do not make the PC program the same as the smart phone. There is many good reasons that seasoned family history persons use the PC for doing the research!!!!!
