heredis

Heredis is a genealogy software program designed to help individuals build and manage family trees and related historical information. It provides tools for recording people, events, places, and sources, and for organizing multimedia such as photos and documents attached to individuals or events. The software supports the creation of various chart types (including ancestor, descendant and fan charts) and the generation of narrative reports, timelines, and family books.

Heredis emphasizes data interoperability and research workflows. It can import and export GEDCOM files to exchange data with other genealogy programs, and it offers options to export reports, charts, and family books in formats suitable for printing or sharing. The application also features source citations, notes, and multimedia attachments to help document genealogical claims. Many versions include search tools, location mapping, and optional cloud synchronization or online publishing of family sites.

The product is marketed for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android platforms, with desktop and mobile editions available. It has been released in multiple languages and targets hobbyists, researchers, and family historians. As a commercial software offering, it receives periodic updates that add features such as improved media handling and expanded data-sharing capabilities.
