โœ… What Transfers Successfully

  • Couple relationships (married, divorced, separated)
  • Parent-child relationships (biological, adopted)
  • Health conditions and medical history
  • Emotional relationship lines
  • Person photographs and images
  • Canvas positions and layout structure
  • Person notes and descriptions

โš ๏ธ What May Need Adjustment

  • Custom symbols: May appear as generic symbols, easily fixed
  • Text positioning: May need minor layout tweaks
  • Custom colors: Will use WebGeno's color scheme
  • Advanced formatting: Some GenoPro-specific features may be simplified

๐Ÿ’ก Migration tip: Import early in your trial period so you have time to make any needed adjustments before deciding on Pro subscription.
