Family Tree Maker 2019 by MacKiev brought a number of upgraded features, and among the most important of these is TreeVault Cloud Services. This cloud service provides much more than simple online storage—it guarantees that your years of genealogical research remain secure, usable, and current.
What is TreeVault Cloud Service?
TreeVault Cloud Service is a companion feature of FTM 2019 that allows users to backup and synchronize their family tree data to the cloud. Unlike Google Drive or Dropbox, TreeVault is genealogy-specific. It makes a safe backup of your family tree so you won’t lose any information if your computer crashes or is lost.
When you buy Family Tree Maker 2019, you get a free one-year subscription to TreeVault. Once the trial period is over, you will need to pay for a subscription to keep using the service.
Key Features of TreeVault Cloud Services
It provides a number of powerful features designed at maximizing your experience with Family Tree Maker 2019. Below are the features of Tree vault cloud services:
1. Antenna Tree:- When you upload your family tree to TreeVault, it establishes a live tree known as the Antenna Tree. The Antenna Tree is updated automatically each time you make a change in FTM 2019 so that your cloud version is always up to date. This comes in handy particularly when syncing your tree between devices or restoring your tree in case of emergencies.
2. Emergency Tree Restore:- Mistakes occur—but your family history does not need to be suffered. TreeVault’s Emergency Tree Restore Facility enables you to restore your full tree in case your PC is lost, damaged, or stolen. Easily log in at TreeVault.com and restore the most recent Antenna Tree backup.
3. Family Tree Maker Connect App:- Want to see your family tree on the move? The FTM Connect App can be accessed via either iOS or Android. Simply log in to your TreeVault account to see your family tree on your tablet or smartphone. Note: The app is read-only; you cannot add or change information through the app.
4. Next of Kin Feature:- Genealogy is a legacy effort. TreeVault allows you to name a successor—a family member or trusted individual who can take over your tree when you are no longer alive. You can even print a certificate attesting to their role as your official successor.
5. Historical Weather Reports:- Another fun and interesting TreeVault feature is the Historical Weather service. Punch in a date—such as your great-grandfather’s birthday—and the software offers the weather conditions for the day in the past, enhancing your records with color and perspective.
Final Thoughts
TreeVault Cloud Services is a game-changer for Family Tree Maker users. With automatic backups, mobile access, succession planning, and even weather insights, it’s more than just storage—it’s a safeguard for your legacy. If you’ve invested time building your family tree in FTM 2019, TreeVault ensures that investment is secure for generations to come.
