A family tree that keeps their voices
TrueKin’s family tree shows everyone who loves your child across three generations, from grandparents to cousins. Write to anyone on it, invite relatives to write too, and keep a place for people who have died, with their photos, letters and voice.
What the rings mean
Every person on the tree has a ring that tells you where they stand, at a glance.
On TrueKin
A solid evergreen ring.
Invited
A dashed brass ring until they accept.
Not on TrueKin
A hairline ring. You can still write to them.
Expected
A dotted ring for a baby on the way.
Remembered
A soft candle ring, with their years.
Write to anyone, in the tree or your circle
Write to your children, your partner, a parent or a friend. Best friends, godparents and mentors live in your circle, outside the tree, and appear in the same picker.

Someone who has died stays on the tree with their years and a candle ring. Add the voice notes, letters and photos you have of them, and write tributes for the children to open later.
Invite relatives to write
Send an invite by email with their relationship and a note in your words. They join in the browser and confirm their place on the tree.
