Privacy and trust
Built for families, kept within the family.
Living relatives will be hidden
People who may still be alive never appear on Family Cards, and they do not appear in the calendar or the other games either.
Your family controls who joins
Only people you invite can join your family. Owners and admins decide each role.
Delete anytime
Delete your family or your account whenever you choose.
Bring everyone together. Start with your family.
