Apps for Apple iOS Mobile Devices (iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch)

These apps have been developed by third parties to enable using your family tree data on your Apple iOS devices. They work off of a GEDCOM file, which AQ can produce. You will need to read up on each app to see what it is capable of doing. The web site or the documentation from the app should help you to find out how to bring the GEDCOM file into the app, and whether you can modify or just view the data. If you modify the data with the app and then bring that GEDCOM back into AQ, you will then need to merge any duplicate records within AQ.

Here are the iOS apps of which we are aware:
