Project 365 Pro

I was using the free version and all was good until I had an iPhone problem that needed a restore. I of course stupidly forgot to backup all my new photos that I had taken and lost them. This led me to decide that getting the pro version of this app would be a good idea since I had just lost a week's worth of my project. I bought the app only to discover something rather annoying; you can't batch backup your photos but rather have to upload each photo one at a time (good thing I only had 1 month of photos). The same goes for restoring your pics from backup (this being from the free to pro version) - really? I have to download each picture one at a time to fill the pro app? That's just the annoying part. The worst part is that each restored picture is now heavily pixilated and nowhere near the quality of the original I have in the free version (guess it does something during the upload to reduce file size and quality). Even for 99 cents the minor differences between the pro and free version are not worth it (a few extra options, and no ads...really?) The free version lets you upload and backup so long as you have a user ID and password (which looks like can be registered for free if I understand the blog posts correctly). I thought the backup would be worth it, but for the hassle and poor quality it reproduces when you do a one-at-a-time restore, my time is worth a heck of a lot more. Piece of crap app. It's things like this where Apple really needs a decent refund policy; either that or they should force developers to provide a full limited time trial version. Oh and the so called support page...what support? There doesn't seem to be any way to write a complaint since it's just a blog page. Not even an "email me with your complaints" link. I don't think I missed it, but it wasn't obvious if it is there.

I wish there was an option to add a caption of what I saw the day I took that particular photo.

Hi, I recently upgraded to iPhone eleven and none of my past years photos have transferred with the app. Is there a way to retrieve previous year’s entries?

Been trying to contact the developer to purchase my old captions back from when the app used to backup into the cloud. Will pay $$, please respond to the emails sent. Thank you.

I used the not paid for app in 2014 for my son’s first year of birth. So when I had my daughter in 2016, I bought this paid app. I completed the 365 days and wanted to make a book. Alvin won’t email back or create the book to print off Lulu. I have been emailing him the past year to have it created and still no response. Horrible service and I can’t even print or get a book of my daughter’s first year. Very angry and frustrated. DO NOT pay for or use this app. Find something else so you can print it and look back at the memories!

I loved the app but with recent changes I have been unable to print my daughter’s photo book. Making my entire YEAR working on it POINTLESS. I have emailed numerous times asking for help/ customer service/ suggestions and have never received ANY response. I am happy to remove/amend my review if I get a reply.

I was at work on Day and a friend told me about this app. I have been using it since July 2 2010. I took the first year and turned into a book. I gave a copy to all my family.

It takes a minute each night to document your day with a photo and short description/ but what a payoff after a year!!! I just did it for a year and had a photo book printed for my husband that I presented to him on New Year's Day . What a joy to remember and reflect on all the days! Alvin Yu, the developer of this app is so responsive and helpful- amazing customer service. He uploads your photos to lulu to print- but I also printed them myself on photo paper/ 3 days to a page. Good luck! Great app! REV. 2-3-17. I just received my Lulu book of each photo printed - it is fabulous!!!

You're shutting down the app? Please add a way to download a full back-up for all photos, a single button (like Instagram). As a photographer, I have used this Pro app everyday for five years! It absolutely needs a one-button back up provision (especially the Pro edition)!

I can't believe I have painstakingly kept up with this for an entire year and just learned, on the day I finally finished my 365th picture, that you can only combine one month at a time into a book or video. Unbelievable. Developer...this is Project 30 app, not Project 365!!! Please retitle it so it isn't misleading!
