I'm currently toying with the idea of putting my family tree on my tablet, so I can have all the info I need when I'm out & about. I'm not after a full-blown genealogy program, just something that's free (or VERY cheap) and can handle an imported GEDCOM. It has to be capable of showing part of a tree and MUST show dates in the person selection criteria (you wouldn't believe how many George HAKINs I have). It would be nice if it could also show sources & notes.
(I'm not really bothered about updating the info on the tablet; anything I want to add/change I can make a note elsewhere.)
My main tree on my Windows laptop is FTM2012. I don't have it sync'd to Ancestry, nor do I want to. It's possible that some time in the future I'll ditch FTM completely and move over to a different program... but at the moment its still working, it does what I want, and I'm used to it. I don't really want to be tied to using it on the tablet.
Does anyone have any suggestions about suitable software for the tablet?
