About this app

The refreshingly simple, and remarkably effective, project management platform.

Managing people and projects under pressure is tough enough. Unfortunately, lots of software makes it worse by over-complicating things. Basecamp’s different.

What makes Basecamp special?

It’s dialed in. For nearly two decades, we’ve continually refined a unique set of tools and methods to fundamentally reduce complexity, and make project management more of a joy and less of a chore. Perfected and pressure-tested by hundreds of thousands of teams on millions of projects, Basecamp’s the gold standard for a simpler, superior version of project management.

Basecamp works because it’s the easiest place for everyone in every role to put the stuff, work on the stuff, discuss the stuff, decide on the stuff, and deliver the stuff that makes up every project. Not on separate platforms scattered in various places, but all intuitively organized in one centralized place where everyone can work together.

Basecamp’s intentionally simple by design. It’s why teams that sometimes leave in search of “more power” end up slamming into the consequences of over-powered software: Complexity. Complexity doesn’t work. Basecamp does. It’s why those that leave end up coming back and sticking with us the second time around. You never know what you had until it’s gone.

The new UI update is not good for users like myself with lots of projects. The compact list view is gone, as is the option to view archived projects. All that's left are these giant cards that only display a few characters of the title. It's not useful at all. Even on the desktop version they took away the option to make list view the default. I'm getting tired of these "one size fits all" design choices that clearly don't work for everyone. Give me a toggle so I can go back to using the app like it was before.

There are several features that don't work from a phone: When editing a comment post, in the messages section of a group, the attachment (paper clip) icon and other formatting options are not available. So, if you forget to add a pic, then you have to re-post or get on a computer. Saving drafts of posts is also a problem. Ping functions are no where to be found in the phone app for Android. There are a few other difficulties but I can't remember them at the moment.

The company I work for uses Basecamp countless times on a daily basis. On desktop computers. The app...is another story. I have never had full functionality of the app on my phone. 95% of the time no campfire conversations, pings, to-do's etc etc ever loaded, regardless of how long I waited. The other 5% of the time it functioned after restarting the app multiple times. Since the most recent couple of updates, it now doesn't load 100% of the time.
