Becoming ever more useful
April 14, 2025

I like the fact that you are getting more and more European records on MyHeritage, it makes it ever more useful for me in my family history research. I recently got a very close match for one of the DNA kits I look after and it was great to correspond with the new family member this way,.

To get your health report you must fill in the question list. When there is a mistake or whatever you are not able to get or find a link to finish this list. So it's a waist of your money. Even to get a person to speak is impossible. I call this fraud.

I went through the process several times to receive notifications for family events.birthdays, anniversaries, etc. But it did not work and still not receiving. Settings, preferences, and checked off the options. Need an intervention at your end.

New photo dating
March 9, 2025

I just discovered the photo dating feature, so I tried it out. At first I thought the date was off, but I went back and matched known birth/death/marriage dates, and the estimated date of the photo is better than my estimated date. I'm going to try it on un-named photos to see if it can help me identify the individuals. What a GREAT FEATURE! I also tried your AI application on a brick wall, but that didn't work well.
