Many of us are on the go and take our iPhones and iPads with us. There are some great apps you can download to take your family history with you. By uploading your gedcom to your iPhone or iPad, you have your family names with you at all times. You do not necessarily have to take your laptop with you during those quick trips to the library or courthouse. There are many apps available now, some free and some for a fee. Below are some I found, in no particular order, that you might like to try out.
