Ratings and reviews

Such a great and well executed concept. I love sharing my little one with privacy from social media with handpicked friends and family. My family and friends have been using it on our recommendation for almost 12 years and now half a dozen kids from four families.

Just gone to update LGs latest measurements and there's been an horrible update to the picture tiles for weights and height. please revert them back to the previous ones. Apart from this, we like using BackThen

I have used this app since 2019. Its the perfect app for keeping photos, videos, and families updated on memories, especially as we live abroad.

What’s new

This update ensures BackThen compatibility with Android 15.
