I recently installed Families on my Iphone4s and it's small but readable. It would be nice to be able to enlarge certain areas if you were having trouble reading something by 'stretching' the screen (some apps but not all allow you to do that) but it's perfect for my needs - I want it with me all the time and I know I will have my phone on me. I don't really want to make changes on it; as I use it, I might change my mind on that so I'm glad it has that capability via IntelliShare in Legacy. After the webinar, I don't think I'd want to directly sync "just in case". So I've been saving the Intellishare threads for when I need to do that later.
That said, I am probably going to pay a 2nd time to get Families on my Kindle Fire just because it is a larger format; but I'm going to wait until after my next trip to the Family History Library and see how satisfied I am with the Iphone size. In case anyone didnt 'see the webinar, if you buy Families for and "I" product, you can install it on any of your other "I" products without buying a 2nd license. As long as you're using the same Itunes account that is. Since Android, Kindle, etc versions are sold via different vendors (Amazon, etc) you have to pay again to buy that version but if you have multiple devices that are recognized by that version, you can install on them all. Watch the webinar and watch the instructions for installing (or the website has instructions); your device will automatically find your devices for you. Very, very cool stuff!
