Quick Start

Six short pages that take you from opening uFTi to your first person, with its source and a copy.

  • Add your first person
    Make your own workspace and add yourself, or someone you know well.
  • Look around
    See what the main menu items show for the person you added.
  • Say where you found it
    Add a source to a fact, so you always know why you believe it.
  • Keep it safe
    Save a copy of your tree as a file, and keep it somewhere else too.
  • What next
    You have a tree, a person, a fact with its source and a copy, so choose where to go from here.

Five things to know

The five ideas behind uFTi, in two minutes.

Bring in, share and keep safe

What your workspace holds, why a GEDZIP file is the one to keep and send, and when a plain family tree file is better.

  • Your workspace and its files
    A workspace is your family tree and its linked files, and a GEDZIP file holds all of them in one file.
  • Opened files and copies
    On a phone or tablet, uFTi works on its own copy of the file you choose, so the file you chose stays as it was.
  • Which file to send
    Send a GEDZIP file to anyone who uses uFTi, and a plain family tree file only to an older program.
