    By Great app for research
    I don’t review apps but it would be a crime to ignore this one. I use it almost every day on my research. It is simple and yet carries a ton of information that has been contributed by the users. Thanks

  • Wrong burial information

    My father-in-law is buried in Port Charles cemetery in Belnor St. Louis county. I tried to change it to that and they rejected the edit and says that he’s buried in North Dakota. It’s some Catholic cemetery which is totally wrong and they won’t let me change it. I tried to change it to the correct information and they rejected it.
  • Best virtual cemetery!

    Whenever I open the app, the map view is automatically defaulted to street map but I would like to see the default map view to be based on what map view the user sets so they don’t have to continuously change their setting each time.
  • Missing features

    If you want all features you must still use a browser. There’s no good reason this app can’t have all the site’s capabilities.
  • Decent app, but some features missing

    This is a reasonably good app for performing many of the core functions of the Findagrave site, but a few things are missing. In particular, you cannot view your messages to and from other users. Nor can you send new messages from here in the app. You can suggest edits for a memorial, but you can't view anything about your past edit suggestions. Also, the screen for suggesting edits does not include a slot for edits to the bio. You can get around these limits by tapping on "view memorial on findagrave com" on a memorial, and then navigating within the little web browser that opens up, but in that case you’re better off using your iPad's web browser to go to the site in the first place.

  • Where is Mail in the App?

    While it's great having the app on my phone, I'm having a hard time finding the messages. I got an email saying I had a message from another user, but I can't find it in the app. I can find messages very easily on the website on my computer.
