Hi, I'm writing this bug-report on behalf of my father's issue with importing a rather large GEDCOM file into Family Gem on Android. He's done genealogy since the late 90s with a genealogy software called Brothers Keeper.

As of today his database is containing about 58 000 names, which I assume is quite a bit more than the average genealogy software user.

He tried with both this app, Family Gem for Android, and another similar app (My Family Me for Android) for importing this rather large GEDCOM database file containing 58 000 names. Neither of those apps were able to import such a large GEDCOM database.

My guess is that both those apps maybe deviate from the same codebase, on which they both may have inherited a bug from the original codebase that has a hard limit that's somewhere below 58 000 names. He also tried importing a GEDCOM file "only" containing 28 000 names, and there were no issues importing that database.

I have the following Gedcom file with about 58 000 names as an attachment.

myfamilylmh100624.zip

I have anonymized all the names as well as occupations in this Gedcom file (I used Notepad++ to replace all the names with xxxx as well as delete the occupation of all the people).
