PFamily

Features

Everything a family wants to remember

In the app for members, and on the admin site for the people who keep the records.

Roots

Family tree

Pan, zoom, tap to open a profile. Expand branches one at a time; collapsed branches show how many people they hold. Smooth even for very large families.

Members

Browse, search without diacritics, filter by branch, see generation numbers. Each person has a profile: life story, photos, events, contact details.

Relationship finder

Pick two people and the app shows how they are connected and how they should address each other.

Family chronicles

Family history, ancestral teachings and family rules — always in the descendants' pocket.

Han-Nom source documents

Scans of genealogy books, royal decrees and stelae, with transliteration and translation.

Timeline & statistics

The family's history across generations; head counts by generation, by branch, by gender.

Remembrance

Lunar memorial calendar

Memorial days are recorded in the lunar calendar and converted to solar dates every year. Includes a lunar–solar date converter.

Memorial reminders

On-device reminders 30, 7, 3 or 1 day ahead or on the day, at the time you choose, muted per person. Email reminders are available too.

Grave map

Locations of ancestral graves, with Google Maps directions for grave-visiting days.

3D ancestral hall

Offer incense to your ancestors in a three-dimensional ancestral hall. Tablet names come straight from the tree, and every offering is recorded.

Tributes

Descendants write tributes on the profiles of those who have passed. Anyone can report a tribute; it is hidden at once and reviewed by the family admin.

360° photos & video

Panoramas of the family temple and grave sites; videos of ceremonies and gatherings. A shared photo library for the whole family.

Togetherness

Family news

Meetings, scholarships, family activities — organised by topic, with photos inside each post.

Family forum

Topics, replies, mentions of people in the tree, polls. Private sections per branch, with moderators and reporting.

Family fund

Income and expenses recorded openly for the whole family to follow.

Contributions

Members suggest corrections and send photos; admins review them before they enter the record.

Three languages

English, Tiếng Việt, 中文 — for relatives living abroad.

Share links

Send a profile or news link to relatives; phones with the app open it straight in the app.
