THEY SAVED ME!!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - I spent hours on a Smilebox slideshow with 100+ photos and music.
  • - The next day all pictures were gone; they restored them and found the cause.

I use Smilebox to journal my travel/trips. I had spent many hours creating a slideshow with over 100 pictures and text and uploaded music.

I save the Creation but next day when I went back in to share it, ALL THE PICTURES WERE GONE! Olha and Maria saved me!!!

They responded quickly and were able to restore my creation and identify what caused the problem.

And this was not the only time!

They have come through for me when I thought all was lost. I truly appreciate all the help they've given me.

Pros:
  • Helpful service team
  • Fun for cards and slideshows

User's recommendation: Smilebox is a great way to save memories and to share with others. My friends really enjoy the cards and slideshows that I send.
