Family is everything, right? Whether it's your immediate family or your extended circle, staying connected with everyone can sometimes feel like a challenge. That's where Parivar's Family Tree feature comes in – making it easier than ever to manage and track your loved ones, all in one place.
In this blog, we’ll show you how to create your own family tree and keep your extended family in the loop, effortlessly!
The Family Tree feature in Parivar is designed to help you visualize and organize your family relationships in a way that’s easy to understand. Imagine a digital family tree that grows with your family. It lets you see who’s related to who, track family connections, and make sure everyone is up to date, whether it’s birthdays, anniversaries, or any special family events.
Creating your family tree is simple with Parivar. Here’s how you can do it:
Start with yourself first. If you haven’t already, sign up for Parivar and set up your family profile. Start by adding yourself and your closest family members.
To start building your family tree, simply start by adding your immediate family members - your parents, siblings, and children. Now, bring in uncles, aunts, cousins, and even in-laws. The more you add, the clearer your family network becomes. You can do this in just a few taps!
Parivar lets you define relationships clearly, whether it’s mummy-papa, dada-dadi, or chacha-chachi. This helps to keep track of who’s who in your family and makes the tree visually clear.
The best part of the Family Tree feature is that you can easily link family members together to show relationships. Want to connect your parents to your grandparents? Or link your children to their cousins? It’s all possible!
Now that you’ve built your family tree, managing it becomes effortless. Here’s how:
Parivar lets you share updates and important events with the whole family. You can post about birthdays, anniversaries, or simply keep everyone in the loop. It’s like having a family newsletter, but better!
You can create private groups for different branches of your family. This means your immediate family can have one group, and the extended family can have another. You can choose who sees what, making it perfect for large families.
Never forget a family event again! The Family Tree allows you to add key dates like birthdays, anniversaries, and more, and Parivar will send you reminders to keep you on top of it all. It’s a simple way to make sure you’re always connected to your family’s milestones.
Make your tree more personal by uploading family photos, noting special dates (like anniversaries), or even adding short stories about ancestors.
As your family grows, so can your tree! Parivar makes it easy to keep updating your tree as you welcome new family members. Whether it’s a new baby or a wedding, you can keep adding connections and relationships to grow the family tree and ensure it reflects your family’s evolving journey.
Once your tree is ready, you can:

Good conversations bring people closer. Whether it’s a family group, a neighborhood community, or a cultural network, open and honest communication helps everyone feel more connected. That’s exactly what the Discussion feature on Parivar is made for. It gives your community a space where everyone can talk freely, share thoughts, and be heard, without judgment or fear. Let’s explore why open conversations matter, how Parivar enables them, and how your community can benefit from it. Why Open Conversations Matter in a Community Every community, be it family, social, cultural, or professional, prospers on communication. But open conversations go beyond small talk. They create room for: Sharing perspectives without fear of judgment Discussing issues that matter to the group Finding solutions together through mutual understanding Building stronger emotional bonds within the community Supporting mental well-being through expression and empathy When people feel heard and respected, they’re more likely to stay connected and contribute positively to the community. What Do We Mean by a “Safe Conversational Space”? A safe conversation space is one where people can speak honestly without fear of backlash, trolling, discrimination, being mocked, induslyed or ignored. It encourages: Mutual respect for everyone’s voice Non-toxic interactions (no hate, personal attacks, or shaming) Clear guidelines to maintain civility Community moderation tools to handle inappropriate content Privacy controls so members feel secure Creating this kind of environment is about setting the right tone, values, and norms within the platform. In short, a safe space helps people feel comfortable being themselves. How Parivar’s Discussion Feature Supports Open Conversations The Discussion feature in Parivar is made to support open and respectful talks. Here’s how it works: 1. Easy to Start a Topic Anyone in the group (depending on the settings) can start a discussion on things that matter like planning an event, solving a community issue, or just sharing opinions. 2. Threaded Conversations Members can create and participate in discussions around topics that matter, whether it’s cultural events, current issues, family matters, or community announcements. Each topic is neatly organized, making it easy to follow and contribute meaningfully. 3. Role-Based Participation Admins can control who can post, who can reply, and who can view specific threads, ensuring conversations stay relevant and appropriate. This helps when the topic is private or only for a few people. 4. Community Moderation Tools Admins and moderators can report or remove harmful content that is rude, offensive, or off-topic, remind members of the rules, and maintain a healthy dialogue. This keeps negativity out and positivity in, maintaining clean and respectful conversations. 5. Private or Public Threads Depending on the sensitivity of the topic, discussions can be public for the whole community or private for selected members or groups. 6. Notifications for Engagement Members are notified when someone replies or tags them, so the discussion remains active, and everyone stays engaged, and feel included. Categories You Can Use to Start Discussions To keep things organized and relevant, Parivar allows you to create discussions in a wide range of categories. This ensures that community members can easily navigate and participate in topics that matter to them. Some popular categories include: Agriculture: Farming tips, crop updates, sustainable practices Business: Startup ideas, local business promotion, market discussions Education: School/college updates, scholarship info, learning resources Finance: Budgeting advice, saving tips, financial planning General: Casual chats, introductions, announcements Health: Wellness tips, medical discussions, mental health support Jobs: Job openings, career guidance, skill development Lifestyle: Food, travel, relationships, hobbies Sports: Match discussions, team support, local tournaments Stock Market: Investment ideas, market trends, financial literacy This variety ensures there's a space for everyone, no matter what they want to talk about. How Communities Use Discussion Feature for Meaningful and Healthy Conversations Here are a few real examples of how people are using the Discussion feature: Families: Discuss upcoming family events or resolve misunderstandings in a respectful space. Cultural Communities: Share perspectives on traditions, festivals, and values Housing Societies: Talk about maintenance issues, neighborhood updates, or community decisions Religious Groups: Reflect on spiritual topics or organize collective initiatives Support Groups: Talking about personal experiences and helping one another Community Leaders: Collecting feedback or ideas before making decisions Social Networks: Hold debates, plan get-togethers, or offer support during personal milestones The feature is versatile and works beautifully for both small and large communities.

Ever missed an important update in your housing society group because it got buried under 200 “Good Morning” messages? Tried planning a college reunion only to realize half your batch is on WhatsApp, a few on Instagram, and the rest… well, they never replied? Or struggled to coordinate a religious event when no one checks their messages on time? If you nodded to any of these, you’re not alone. Staying connected shouldn’t be this hard. But for most Indian families and communities, it still is. The Problem with “Regular” Social Apps Let’s face it: most communication apps weren’t built for how we actually interact. WhatsApp groups get noisy and chaotic Facebook feels too public Emails? No one checks them unless it’s work-related And when you’re trying to bring together people from different age groups, cities, or even countries, it just doesn’t work smoothly. That’s exactly why Parivar exists. Parivar is More Than Just a “Family” App Don’t let the name fool you. While Parivar started as an app for families, it’s grown into something much more powerful. Today, communities of all kinds use it to: Stay organized Communicate privately Celebrate together And build stronger bonds Whether it’s a housing society, cultural group, alumni network, or business circle, Parivar brings people together without the chaos. In this blog, we’ll show you how different communities are using Parivar to bring their people closer, and how you can too. Different Communities That Can Benefit from the Parivar App Let’s look at the many types of communities that can benefit from using Parivar. 1. Joint and Extended Families In Indian families, group chats can get messy, and important updates often go unnoticed. With Parivar, your entire family stays connected and organized in one peaceful space. Create a digital family tree that grows with every generation. Get automatic reminders for birthdays, anniversaries, and milestones. Plan weddings, housewarmings, or family trips with shared calendars. Share photos, memories, and announcements without getting lost in forwards. 2. Housing Societies and Local Communities Managing residential societies isn’t just about collecting maintenance fees. It’s about creating a vibrant, safe, and informed community. Parivar helps you: Share important notices, meeting minutes, or maintenance updates instantly. Plan cultural events like Holi, Diwali, Ganesh Chaturthi, or society clean-up drives. Maintain resident directories, vendor contacts, emergency numbers, all in one place. Avoid cluttered groups where urgent updates get buried. 3. Religious and Spiritual Groups Faith-based communities need a space that respects both tradition and privacy. Parivar gives spiritual groups a sacred digital space to: Share event schedules like aarti timings, pooja invites, or satsang meetings. Send reminders for fasts, festival rituals, or important religious days. Upload bhajans, pravachans, or inspirational messages for members to listen to anytime. Enable discussion and bonding in a respectful, serene environment. 4. Samaj Communities Samaj groups often manage crucial functions like matchmaking, networking, and preserving tradition. Parivar helps them do this easily: Share and browse matrimonial profiles securely, with full control over who sees what. Plan samaj sammelans, local gatherings, or annual events. Maintain records of families, community members, and key contacts. Circulate job openings, educational resources, or business opportunities within the group. 5. Regional and Cultural Communities For people who’ve moved away from their hometowns, staying rooted in culture is vital. Parivar helps communities celebrate identity across borders: Organize and celebrate regional festivals like Pongal, Navratri, or Onam, together. Pass down traditions by sharing stories, recipes, and language-specific content. Host virtual or in-person meetups to keep the community spirit alive. Create a digital space that feels like home, no matter where you are. 6. Alumni and Old Student Groups Old classmates often scatter after graduation, but Parivar brings them back together. Former classmates and alumni associations can use Parivar to: Organize reunions, fundraisers, or networking events. Share memories, throwback photos, and alumni achievements. Stay connected through a clean, private group, no distractions, no random forwards. Build a legacy and keep the school/college bond going strong. 7. Professional or Trade Communities Whether it’s a local business circle or an industry-specific trade group, Parivar helps professionals stay connected and grow together: Create private networks to collaborate, discuss, and share insights. Post announcements, market updates, or policy changes that affect the group. Plan job fairs, expos, or member-only events with clear communication. Support each other’s growth in a trusted, focused space.
