Here are tools created by independent developers for the community. The two most essential are the integrated Tree Apps and the WikiTree Browser Extension.

If you are interested in development, join the WikiTree Apps Project.

Web Apps

Apps may require you to login to apps.wikitree.com in addition to www.wikitree.com. This is for security and privacy. Your password is not shared with the app developer and private family profiles are only accessible while you are logged-in.
