You may be willing to wait until the new Ancestry features are available or you may wish to get started right away. We invite you to look at RootsMagic and its features and, if you like what you see, you’re welcome to make the transition whenever you feel ready. So you don’t have to make the switch immediately. We certainly wouldn’t mind if you did 🙂 But seriously, Ancestry has stated that current versions of Family Tree Maker will work with their services through 2016. In fact, these relationships give RootsMagic users the ability to access more records from more sources than any other software.

This will not affect any existing functionality in the RootsMagic software including sharing data with FamilySearch Family Tree and WebHints. Will I still be able to use RootsMagic to work with FamilySearch, MyHeritage, and other companies? The features and records available to you will depend on your subscription level. Use of Ancestry features will require an Ancestry account, even if only as a free Registered Guest. Will I need an Ancestry subscription to use these features? You’re free to use or ignore them as you like. Like all of our integrations with other companies, these features are completely optional. What if I don’t want to upload my data to Ancestry?

If you are using a version of RootsMagic older than 7, you will need to purchase an upgrade to 7 to use the features.Īs is to be expected with something this big, it will not happen overnight. If you are using the paid version of RootsMagic 7, these features will be included in a free update to that version. Will I have to buy a new version of RootsMagic to use these features? Former Family Tree Maker users will have a path forward, importing their original FTM files while using the Ancestry hints and trees that they’ve come to depend on. RootsMagic users will have convenient access to Ancestry’s vast collections of trees and records, as well as synchronizing with private online trees. This really is a win-win for both companies and their users.

Why are RootsMagic and Ancestry working together? We’ve simply arranged to work with our friends at Ancestry to make this happen just as we work with FamilySearch, MyHeritage, and other genealogy companies. RootsMagic is still the same independent software maker that we’ve always been.
