Ratings and Reviews
Unfortunate changes
Our family has had Back Then for quite a while now for the three kids and family photos and it’s awesome as far as being able to share in one app rather than sending photos out, but they’ve recently instituted a NO download policy for pictures and videos which is supposedly for privacy reasons however since you have to have a paid subscription and users need login credentials it makes no sense. This is why I took one star off. It’s a problem… what’s the point of sharing pictures if you can’t download the ones that you like rather than having to log onto the app every time you want to see photos? The monthly price hasn’t gone up, so I think it’s a bandwidth issue. BT really needs to up their bandwidth or whatever the problem is and get rid of this privacy policy because it’s ridiculous and upsetting and I’m sure users are going to start dropping off.
Now more than ever, we need this app to stay connected
I was a devotee of the app “Lifecake” for many years and absolutely crushed when its parent company made the decision to close up shop. Happily, BackThen stepped up to fill the need. I upload photos, movies, and stories from my phone and Back Then automatically places them in chronological order within the times lines of each of my kids. Given that we can’t fly to see overseas relatives (and even family within the country) due to the current situation, Back Then helps us stay connected. All my children’s grandparents love checking in with Back Then each day and seeing what their grandkids are up to. Transitioning from Lifecake was easy... thank you so much BackThen team! I highly recommend this easy to use, creative, fun app. No more than ever, we need this app to help us feel closer and to share (virtually) what we can’t share in real life.
Fantastic Photo Archiving App for Parents
Intuitive, slick photo and video archiving app that allows family to share photos in a secure, private space that allows parents, grandparents, and others to comment, add content, and have a photo archive with them whenever they want to access it. Allows large photo/video uploads as well as provides access to download your archive whenever you want. Formerly Lifecake - which was unfortunately downsized by the parent company during the pandemic of 2020 - the staff even made the transition of 100s of gigabytes of photos from the former app to this one seamless and relatively rapid. Have been an active user of Lifecake -> BackThen for 4 years and highly recommend it.
