Hi I would like a type of layout for family tree that can be easier to use on phones, for indexing.

    which are you referring to?

    Family Tree or Indexing or both?

    personally - I would go nuts trying to use FamilySearch on a phone

    just not enough real estate to be displaying so much information.

    zooming in and out - scrolling up and down - Id go crazy

    I am just another User/Patron like yourself ...

    .

    Similar to 'Dennis', I would not even, want; or, attempt, to do "Indexing" on a "Mobile" Phone.

    .

    And, due to the IMPORTANCE of "Indexing" I would NOT want others to even try.

    .

    I want QUALITY with "Indexing" NOT "Quantity".

    .

    The smallest "Mobile" Device that I would even consider using to do "Indexing" is a "Tablet" of NO smaller than 10" (10 Inches); preferably, larger; but, even then, I would need to test its worthful'ness.

    .

    'No', I am sorry; but, I for one, would not be one to support/recommend this idea (suggestion/feedback) of yours.

    .

    And, I have a largish "Mobile' Phone.

    .

    But ...

    That said ...

    .

    DO NOT get discouraged with my response or any other negative responses ...

    You never know ... it may happen ... "Indexing" with "Mobile" Phones ...

    Lets wait and see ...

    .

    All "IDEAS" in this Forum are looked and considered at by "Official 'FamilySearch' Representatives".

    .

    Desktop/Laptops computers are still the best and only devices to do "Indexing" on ...

    .

    Just my thoughts ...

    .

    Hello,

    I am trying to clean up a deceased friends tree. I need to speak to someone in SLC Family History as this is sensitive information that needs to be corrected in SLC. How do I get to talk to someone who can correct this information. I do not want to share this friend's information with the public.

    Thank you.
