What's the Drawer?

The Drawer keeps people who aren't joined to the family yet. Picture a big table holding your tree, with little tables of jigsaw scraps around it – the Drawer holds the scraps safe until you find where they fit. You can add someone straight into it with + add an unplaced person, and it also holds deleted people for 60 days in case you want them back.

Where to find it

  • Drawer (third row of the top bar, far right) → + add an unplaced person

    Only people with the "Notebooks" tick.

On a phone: if the menu is tucked away, press ☰ Menu (top left) first.
