Step 1 — शुरुआत

Create your account

Sign up with just your name and email address — no credit card, no payment required. Your account is your identity on the platform and connects you to every family tree you join.

✓ Simple signup ✓ Email verification ✓ Hindi or English name ✓ 30-second process
💡 Use your real name — this is the name family members will see when you appear in the tree and the feed.

Name + Email
That's all you need
Step 2 — वंश-वृक्ष

Create your family tree

From your dashboard, click "नई वंशावली बनाएं". Give your family tree a name in Hindi and/or English. You can also add your family's Samaj, Gotra, Kuldevi, and ancestral village — making your tree culturally rich from day one.

✓ Hindi + English name ✓ Samaj / Gotra ✓ Kuldevi / Kulbhairav ✓ Ancestral village ✓ Privacy settings ✓ Unlimited trees
💡 You can create multiple trees — one for your paternal family, one for maternal, one for in-laws. A single account manages all of them.

Step 3 — सदस्य जोड़ें

Add family members

Start with yourself, then add your parents, grandparents, spouse, children, and siblings. Each member gets a rich profile — name, birth year, photo, profession, address, and more. The tree builds itself visually as you add members.

✓ Parents & grandparents ✓ Spouse & children ✓ Siblings ✓ Photos ✓ Birth year & place ✓ Profession & contact ✓ Deceased members (स्व.)
💡 Add as many or as few details as you like. You can always edit and add more later. There's no pressure to fill everything at once.

Step 4 — परिवार को बुलाएं

Invite your family

Your family tree is better when built together. Invite relatives via email — they'll get a link to join Manugram and connect to your tree. You can give them Contributor access so they can add their own branch of the family.

✓ Invite via email ✓ Contributor role ✓ Join request approval ✓ Each member manages their own branch ✓ Family builds together
💡 As Creator of the tree, you approve all join requests and control who becomes a contributor. Your tree, your control.

Step 5 — यादें संजोएं

Preserve memories & stories

Once your tree has members, start adding the richness — life memories on each member's timeline, family stories in किस्से-कहानियाँ, cultural traditions in अभिलेख पटल, and live updates in the Family Feed. This is where your tree comes alive.

Step 6 — खोजें और साझा करें

Explore & share your tree

Navigate your tree visually — zoom, pan, click on any member to see their full profile. Share your tree with the world (or keep it private). Every member gets a public profile URL to share on WhatsApp, family groups, and social media.

✓ Interactive tree view ✓ Public or private tree ✓ Shareable member profiles ✓ Search members ✓ Mobile friendly ✓ WhatsApp share
💡 Use Privacy Settings to control exactly who sees what — your tree can be public, members-only, or completely private.
