Upgrade to Legacy 10 to continue using Legacy’s FamilySearch tool

For years, Legacy Family Tree software users have enjoyed using Legacy's FamilySearch tool.  This tool lets you optionally sync and share your tree in Legacy with the tree at FamilySearch. To improve security, FamilySearch recently made significant changes to their login procedures. These changes will affect how Legacy users login using the tool, beginning July 1, 2024. To continue using Legacy's FamilySearch tools, you must upgrade to Legacy version 10.

Upgrade to v10 for free

Visit www.LegacyFamilyTree.com to download Legacy 10. It's free.

After you've installed v10 and opened your family file, you'll notice that the FamilySearch tool appears in the same place that you're used to. Everything about this tool, except for the login screen, remains the same.

You won't be able to use the FamilySearch tool in Legacy 9 or earlier beginning July 1, 2024 (earlier versions will not be updated with the new login tool).

Remember, sharing data with FamilySearch is a manual, optional process. Legacy does not automatically share anything between it and FamilySearch. But some people enjoy the functionality between the two. You might too. Just enable option 1.8 at Options > Customize.
