Why a native app beats a website on iPad

Apple Pencil, done right

Annotate directly on the canvas with pixel precision. Web tools treat Pencil like a clumsy mouse — a native app treats it like a pen.

Client data stays on-device

No servers, no accounts, no tracking SDKs. Files stay local unless you choose iCloud backup — a real difference for confidentiality-bound professionals.

Works with zero signal

Home visits, hospitals, rural clinics — genograms don't wait for Wi-Fi. Everything works fully offline.

Built for live sessions

Hand the iPad to a client and map the family together. Multitouch drag, pinch to zoom across generations — collaboration feels natural on glass.

Common questions

What is the best genogram app for iPad?

Genogram Creator is a native iPadOS app purpose-built for genograms, with 100+ clinical symbols, Apple Pencil support, and offline on-device storage. Unlike iGenogram ($14.99 upfront, iPad only, last updated in 2024) or GenogramApp Family Trees (free tier capped at 10 people per genogram), Genogram Creator is free to download and the same universal listing covers iPhone and Mac.

Is there a free genogram app?

Yes. Genogram Creator is free to download from the App Store on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and every new subscriber gets a 7-day free trial of the full feature set with no charge until the trial ends.

Does the genogram app support Apple Pencil?

Yes. You can annotate directly on the canvas with Apple Pencil, drag family members with touch, and pinch to zoom across generations. It works on every iPad size, including iPad mini and iPad Pro.

Can I use the genogram app during therapy sessions?

Yes — that is exactly what it is built for. Many therapists map family systems live with clients on iPad. Everything stays on-device, so sensitive client information never touches a server.

Does the app work offline?

Yes. Genogram Creator is a native iPadOS app that works fully offline. Your genograms are stored on-device with no account and no sync, and the app contains no analytics or tracking SDKs.

Is there a Mac version of the genogram app?

Yes. Genogram Creator runs natively on macOS with full keyboard and trackpad support. One download covers iPhone, iPad and Mac from the same App Store listing, and one subscription covers all three.

Does it run on iPhone as well?

Yes — iPhone support ships in version 1.2.0, from the same universal listing. It is not a cut-down companion: the editor chrome was rebuilt for a phone, with a contextual bottom toolbar and a pull-up inspector, but the symbols, templates and exports are identical to iPad.
