Lack of storage

I am paying for extra storage but they still don’t have the extra storage capacity available and keeps saying extra storage is coming but they has done so for several months. No one replies to your questions or when the upgrade in storage is coming.

FAQ

What is BackThen?

BackThen is a private family journal designed to help you save, organize, and cherish every photo, video, and milestone from your child's life. It allows you to securely store memories from pregnancy through their growing years, with features like automatic organization by child and full-resolution storage.

How does BackThen organize memories?

Memories are automatically sorted by child and organized chronologically on their own timeline. This makes it effortless to view individual child timelines or see all family memories together. You can also easily find specific moments by scrolling or searching by date.

Can I create photo books with BackThen?

Yes, a new feature allows you to transform your most-loved moments from the app into premium Photo Books. These books are beautifully laid out and printed to the highest quality, offering a tangible way to preserve your digital memories.

Is BackThen free to use?

The app offers a free tier with 1GB of storage to try out all features. For more storage and advanced features, a VIP subscription is available with monthly pricing options. You can also print your favorite photos as calendars, montages, or individual prints.

Who can I share memories with on BackThen?

You can invite family and friends to view your memories, and you control their permissions. Everyone invited will be notified when new memories are added. The app emphasizes privacy with no ads and no data-sharing.
