Reunion overview

Reunion helps you to document, store, and display information about your family -- your ancestors, descendants, cousins, etc. It records names, dates, places, facts, plenty of notes, sources of information, pictures, sounds, and videos. It shows family relationships in an elegant, graphic form -- people and families are linked in an easy-to-understand fashion.

Reunion makes it easy to publish your family tree information -- even if you want to share it on the Web. You can automatically create common genealogy reports, charts, and forms, as well as birthday calendars, mailing lists, questionnaires, indexes, books and other lists. Reunion even calculates relationships, ages, life expectancies, and statistics. Reunion also creates large, high-resolution, graphic charts allowing complete on-screen editing of boxes, lines, fonts, and colors. Wall charts are one of its specialties.

Limitations of the demo version:

  • Only 50 people can be entered in a family file.
  • Import/Export is disabled.
  • Charts and slideshows can't be saved.
  • Printed output will be watermarked.

Note: Version 14 is also a paid upgrade ($49.95) from previous versions.

What’s new in version 14.0

  • Improved the behavior of automatically making added media preferred.
  • Fixed a problem when a preferred picture linked to a fact or event is clicked on the family view.
  • Find > Find Relationship - Fixed the Bookmarks in the Person popup menu.
  • Save A Backup Copy and Export Family File - Included Bookmarks and Noteboard in the resulting file.
  • Fixed some minor cosmetic dark mode issues.

Decades overdue for an update. Dark Mode has been out for how long? Like 5 or 6 macOS versions... Still no update. They did a half way dark that just doesn't work. Dark menu bars, but blinding bright backgrounds. Need to look at MacFamilyTree. I love their app, but hate their company, and what they did to their users. I will not support them. It would be nice if there was good competition, so I hope Reunion can get it together. The interface is as important as the features. If you can't look at it, you can't use it, and hours of being blinded is not fun. I really want it to be better.

By far the best Genealogy app for Mac. Solid and keeps up to date (Silicon-native) , with no unnecessary nonsense. Supports IOS app which auto-updates via iCloud Like all genealogy/Family Tree apps, it is overpriced and has a slightly naff/old-fashioned interface. That having been said, this is best of the bunch even on these terms: price and interface

I have been a loyal customer of Reunion longer than I can remember. Unfortunately, our relationship goes only one way. Reunion 13 is another paid upgrade, seriously? The "new features" listed in version 13 are all bug fixes. The software company should not charge for fixing what was wrong with the current version. Not good to do that...

I'm looking for a simple application to create genealogy tables of fictional characters from mythology and novels for a book and handouts in my literature class. Mythological characters may sometimes have more than one father and one mother. I also need the tree to show the character's function, for example 'war good', 'goddess of love', etc. and the name of their abode (if applicable.) Ideally, the app should be able to incorporate new genealogies as I move along. I'm thinking about mythology here, first and foremost. Suppose I need a handout for Antigone in my literature class. Three or four generations would suffice for the class. But then later, I might want to extend the tree to see all the ancestors of Antigone to the beginning of the world (= 9 generations.) Any suggestions?

Reunion worked great until that last security patch fried my entire laptop, taking not just the database and disabling the Finder, but all my 25 years worth of research documents, family photos, my late husband's music and all the other data on my Mac. I will never buy this program again, and I deeply regret the hundreds of dollars I've spent since I became a customer many years ago. My backup copy is useless. So, I get to start from scratch - on my brand new affordable Dell, with brand new software I have yet to buy. Thanks for nothing.
