Refund of Lifecake membership?

I just purchased a yearly subscription to Lifecake only to be told it’s ceasing to exist and replacing with this. When I go to import everything over to this it wants to charge me a new monthly fee, so I’m getting charged twice? Are you refunding the lifecake memberships?
So one star for now but will change once sorted
Also feedback...BackThen... terrible name. This is a fun app, should have a fun name. Lifecake was a good name, BackThen is boring and confusing, Back when?

Developer Response ,

BackThen is a NEW company and we are not affiliated to Lifecake or its owners. BackThen was created to give parents and their families an alternative to having to move away from the experience they have grown used to.

Lifecake have assured us that (1) pro-rated refunds are already being processed, and (2) all parents will be provided with 'Download All' links to retrieve their memories within the next 10 days.

Thank you

Thank you for saving what once was Lifecake! It was our favourite app and it’s so sad it had to close. I really appreciate your hard work getting this one up and running! One suggestion for the future- it would be amazing to be able to compare siblings at the same age by selecting photos of each of them from their stream!

Same as Lifecake

We enjoy using Lifecake as do our family. All the same features are there, still sad that you have changed the name not as fun anymore.
Would love to be able to choose the two photos that get compared in the treasure if you can make that happen!!

Developer Response ,

When the decision was made to close Lifecake, the original founders decided – rather than let the memories in Lifecake fade away – to quickly build an independent new app to replace it. BackThen. The company is 100% owned by the founders, with no association to Lifecake's parent company.

Lifecake have assured us that pro-rated refunds are already being processed.
