Super buggy and super expensive. What once was free was then $40 a year. Fine. But now they want $70 a year?! My family is constantly having issues with it. And even with paying I get tons of ads. Over it. Edit to add 11/2024 Cost has risen again. We decided to just go with the free version for now. The amount of uploads a month included for free is appallingly low. There are lots of free options that are just as good. I hate to leave tiny beans, since we've been using since 2021, but 😬

The fact that the app has more than doubled in less than a year is awful. We've been using this app for 6+ year and I wish they offered something more manageable than 20 pictures a month. I'm doing about that a week for my family to see. I'll definitely keep my eye out for another option when it becomes available as this price increase is ridiculous.

We've consistently used this app for almost 8 years and have loved it. Really wish we bought a lifetime subscription when it was offered because the price increases are really annoying and frustrating. Like others, we are extremely disappointed with the price increase. I understand need to raise prices, but an increase of double is hard to justify. We have our entire three kids childhoods documented on TinyBeans so it would be hard to give up but when will the price increases stop?
