· 13 min

Twelve simple steps to get more out of a 23andMe test and raise your chances of naming the ancestor you and your DNA cousins share. Most steps work without the app, and the video doubles as a short introduction to it. Recorded in 2020 on an earlier version of the app, before the DNA matches feature, so some screens look different today.
