Synchronisation with Ancestry.co.uk
FTM 2017, FTM 2019, and now FTM 2024 are the only Family Tree Maker editions whose trees can sync with an Ancestry online tree so that they stay matched. The online tree can then be shared with others who you can allow to view, leave comments, or edit. And even better, you can now sync your Ancestry tree to both your laptop and your desktop at the same time. So when you get back from a trip with your laptop, you'll be just one sync away from the happiest (and easiest) family history homecoming you've ever had.

COLOUR CODING
One of the most frequent requests
Color coding from genealogists using color coding, was for "rich" color coding not just coding the home person's ancestors but each ancestor's descendants as well. With FTM 2024, rich color coding is just one click away.
PHOTO DARKROOM- RECOVERING OLD FADED PHOTOS THE EASY WAY
In FTM 2017 we introduced a set of repair tools for damaged photos, especially those that faded over time to be almost blank. And we named them collectively Photo Darkroom. Now in FTM 2024, we've greatly expanded the tools you'll have on hand to rescue old family photos. They include cropping and a range of new repair tools that will help you remove dust and scratches. And, as with the first set of Photo Darkroom tools, the original photograph is always saved unchanged.
Sync Weather Report
Wouldn't it be great if you could know when there was a problem with syncing so you could just stay away for a time and come back when it was safe? That was the simple idea behind the Sync Weather Report built into FTM 2024. Now each time you go to sync, if there's a reason you should maybe think twice, a window pops up to say so.
Charts, Reports, and Books
View and share your discoveries with a variety of colorful family tree charts, such as pedigree, descendant, bowtie and fan charts, and create reports that provide a snapshot of your family tree and help you plan what to research next. More options and views let you display an individual's ancestors, spouses, and children together. Also, the Index of Individuals Report has been expanded with options for anniversary, birthday, contact lists, and more
Hints Made Easy to See
Once found only on tree views, those little green Ancestry leaves and FamilySearch hints now appear in the people index too. No more scrolling through branches to find all the latest hints. And you can check for hints for a particular family name in the Index or in a saved list.
