In-app help tips

The little ✨ coach marks Rootkin™ shows once. Here's how to dismiss them — and how to bring them back.

Walkthrough

  1. The first few times you visit a Rootkin screen, a small tip card pops up explaining a non-obvious button or gesture — the ✨ button on Add Person, the long-press on the tree, the star on a photo.
  2. Tap Got it to dismiss the tip for good. Rootkin remembers and won't show that one again.
  3. If you'd like to see the tips again — for instance, to walk a new family member through the app — open Settings → Reset help tips. The next time you visit each screen, the tips reappear.
