In this fast-paced world, where everyone is constantly on the go, the concept of a traditional family has changed: long-distance careers across continents, screen time taking over dinner conversations and conflicting views between generations.  

Knowing our family tree and holding on to our roots can be a challenge—yet also a necessity. Keeping all these complications in mind, the Kintree is designed to bridge these gaps and keep your family legacy secured. 

The Shifting Times 

As times are changing, family dynamics are changing too. The modern family today is often not settled on the same continent, let alone in the same city. As a result, the culture, traditions and language experience a shift as screens become the only common medium of communication in such circumstances.  

Sure, there is a shift—but the longing for connection, shared history, and a sense of familiarity remains constant. This is where bridging the generational gap becomes essential. Through this, we preserve a family legacy that continues to guide and inspire us. 

The Generation Gaps Are Inevitable 

Let’s face it – Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, Gen Z and Gen Alphas see the world through very different lenses. Older generations may prefer solitude and tradition, while younger generations may seek constant connection and freedom. With so many generations coexisting, gaps are bound to occur. But if walls can be conquered, these gaps can certainly be filled. 

One of the best ways to bring a family together is through storytelling—milestones, historic events, and the victories of those who came before us. These stories shape our identities. They help us understand where we come from and teach us the core values passed down through generations.  

A Bridge That Links our Families 

Enter Kintree—a modern, easy-to-use family tree app that connects generations in a meaningful way.

Whether you’re reconnecting with a long-lost cousin, exploring your family tree, or showing your kids the history of your shared lineage, Kintree becomes a living archive of your family history. 

Drawing out your family tree, isn’t just visual data – it’s a digital space where generations meet, learn and appreciate each other. This leads to intergenerational conversations that spark empathy.
