Export a GEDCOM from Heredis and open it in Genea World

How to export your Heredis genealogy to GEDCOM to open, correct and convert it for free in your browser.

Heredis is a widely used genealogy program. To open your data elsewhere, you go through the standard exchange format: GEDCOM.

Heredis stores your data in a .hmw folder (with a .heredis file and your media), a proprietary format that other tools cannot read directly.
