The To-Do list is great for things like planning next research steps or capturing ideas or questions you’d like to answer about specific ancestors.
Here's how it works:
To locate the To-Do feature:
On the FamilySearch.org website, after signing in, the To-Do List is located in the bottom right corner of the screen.
To add a To-Do:
1. Select + Add an item... in the field at the top of the To-Do List box.
2. Type in your To-Do.
3. Tap or click the check mark to save.
To edit or delete a To-Do:
1. Locate the To-Do that you would like to edit or delete.
2. On the right side of the To-Do item, tap or click the 3 dots.
3. Tap or click Edit to make a change to the To-Do or Delete to remove it from the list.
Completed items
Once you check off a to-do item, it will appear in the Completed Items list. Completed items can be deleted by tapping or clicking the trash can icon.
Links in To-Do items
You can include links to web pages or to people in Family Tree in your To-Dos. These links can act as short-cuts to jump right to the area of the site you want to work in.
Notes: These instructions are for the To-Do List on the new home page (ensure the button next to Try new home page features in the top right corner of the screen is on the right side, or turned on). The To-Do List option is not available on the mobile apps, it is only available on the FamilySearch.org website.
